I'm caring for my mother, who's 79. After a heart attack Dhanalakshmi can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Dhanalakshmi desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Dhanalakshmi worked all of her life as a nurse, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for eight months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $200 goes: โ€ข Medication and prescriptions: $120 โ€ข Hospital bed and mattress rental: $40 โ€ข Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $40 With deep gratitude, Aishwarya
