Palmira
I'm caring for my father, who's 95. After a heart attack Víctor can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Víctor desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Víctor worked all of his life as a carpenter, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for three months will make a huge difference. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $750 goes: • Part-time carer (three months): $400 • Medication and prescriptions: $155 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $80 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $115 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Daniel
