Citlali wants to stay at home - help fund four months of care

Citlali can't afford the care She needs after a heart attack; we're asking for $1,500.

I'm caring for my mother, who's 93. After a heart attack Citlali can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Citlali desperately wants to stay at home. I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Citlali worked all of her life as a seamstress, and raised 4 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. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $1,500 goes: • Medication and prescriptions: $190 • Part-time carer (four months): $1,200 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $110 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Ana
