Shinjuku
I'm caring for my father, who's 90. After a fall and hip fracture Yuki can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Yuki 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. Yuki worked all of his life as a bus driver, and raised 3 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. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $3,550 goes: • Part-time carer (four months): $2,250 • Medication and prescriptions: $530 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $350 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $420 I hope life is good to you.
