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.

You're not alone, Ana. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Buffalo donated after I showed her your page. God bless!
