Care for Xuân, 78: help cover a carer and medication in Cầu Giấy
Xuân can't afford the care She needs after the death of her spouse; we're asking for $400.

I'm caring for my mother, who's 78. After the death of her spouse Xuân can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Xuân desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Xuân worked all of her life as a nurse, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for four 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 $400 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $330
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $55
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $15
Every share and every dollar helps.

So sorry you're going through this, Sơn. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Wish I lived closer to Enugu so I could bring a meal.
Thinking of you and your family, Sơn. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Cầu Giấy.
