Dignity in old age: caring for Hadi
Hadi can't afford the care He needs after the death of his spouse; we're asking for $1,050.

I'm caring for my father, who's 74. After the death of his spouse Hadi can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Hadi desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Hadi worked all of his life as a carpenter, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for three 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 $1,050 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $840
• Medication and prescriptions: $55
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $50
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $105
With deep gratitude,
Irfan

Wishing Hadi a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Surabaya
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Love from Quezon City.
wishing you the best. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Chattogram donated after I showed her your page.
Praying for you, Irfan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. After 17 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Sending strength, Irfan. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
