Care for Yuna, 91: help cover a carer and medication in Fukuoka

I'm caring for my mother, who's 91. After a stroke last August Yuna can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Yuna 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. Yuna worked all of her life as a seamstress, and raised 2 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $2,300 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $1,350 • Medication and prescriptions: $390 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $190 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $370 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
