I'm caring for my mother, who's 90. After a stroke last February Chhaya can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Chhaya 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. Chhaya worked all of her life as a factory worker, and raised 4 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 $450 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $270 • Medication and prescriptions: $70 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $40 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $70 Every share and every dollar helps.

Thank you all. We're at 22% now ($98). I'm honestly stunned. we've started the first stage.
Quick update: $41 raised so far (9%). I made the first payment toward medication and prescriptions. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Wanted to say thank you properly. 5% funded and I met with the care agency and confirmed the amounts.
