San Nicolás de los Garza

I'm caring for my mother, who's 84. After worsening Parkinson's disease Yolanda can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Yolanda desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Yolanda worked all of her life as a farmer, and raised 5 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 $950 goes: • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $80 • Part-time carer (eight months): $660 • Medication and prescriptions: $210 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
