Diana wants to stay at home - help fund four months of care
Help Diana stay in her own home with four months of part-time care.

I'm caring for my mother, who's 81. After a stroke last March Diana can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Diana 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.
Diana worked all of her life as a bus driver, and raised 5 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 $950 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $650
• Medication and prescriptions: $120
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $70
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $110
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Los Angeles.
Praying for you, Nana. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. God bless.
