I'm caring for my father, who's 74. After a diagnosis of dementia Walid can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Walid desperately wants to stay at home. I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Walid worked all of his life as a schoolteacher, 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. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $2,750 goes: • Part-time carer (three months): $1,800 • Medication and prescriptions: $210 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $250 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $490 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Ghassan
