I'm caring for my father, who's 80. After a diagnosis of dementia Wahyu can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Wahyu desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Wahyu worked all of his life as a carpenter, and raised 5 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. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $200 goes: โ€ข Medication and prescriptions: $80 โ€ข Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $85 โ€ข Hospital bed and mattress rental: $35 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • How is Wahyu doing now?

    • Good luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. All the best.

      • Take care, Tika. Your post was clear and honest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

        • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Wahyu.

          • Tika LubisOwnerAnswer

            Medication and prescriptions is $80 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks, that means a lot.

        • hang in there, Tika. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

          • Sending strength, Tika. I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless

            • Praying for you, Tika. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Mar del Plata.
