Dignity in old age: caring for Nabil
Help Nabil stay in his own home with six months of part-time care.

I'm caring for my father, who's 95. After a heart attack Nabil can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Nabil 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.
Nabil worked all of his life as a schoolteacher, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six 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 $450 goes:
• Medication and prescriptions: $130
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $40
• Part-time carer (six months): $280
Thank you so much.

thanks for sharing this, Samira. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Cairo.
Praying for you, Samira. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Pune
Sending good thoughts, Samira. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless.
Sending good thoughts, Samira. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Cairo
Keep going. Hope the doctors have good news. After 27 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
Hope it all works out, Samira. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Cairo
thanks for sharing this, Samira. Hope you get there. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.
