Dignity in old age: caring for Nirali
Help Nirali stay in her own home with six months of part-time care.
🇮🇳 Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India1,698 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 77. After a stroke last July Nirali can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Nirali desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Nirali worked all of her 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 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 $950 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $730
• Medication and prescriptions: $115
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $70
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $35
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Take care
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Nirali
It's all in the list in the story. part-time carer (six months) is the big one at $730, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Thanks for asking.
Take care, Snehal. I hope things turn around soon. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Wishing you the best. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.
Wishing you peace, Snehal. Your post was clear and honest. Love from Newcastle upon Tyne.
Praying for you, Snehal. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Noida
