I'm caring for my father, who's 78. After a fall and hip fracture Yasir can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Yasir 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. Yasir worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for eight months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $1,000 goes: • Part-time carer (eight months): $770 • Medication and prescriptions: $90 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $65 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $75 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Ali

  • Stay strong. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.

    • Thinking of you and your family. Hope the doctors have good news. Sent it to 11 people at work. God bless.
