Dignity in old age: caring for Roi
Help Roi stay in his own home with three months of part-time care.
🇮🇱 Tel Aviv, Tel Aviv, Israel2,566 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 84. After a stroke last August Roi can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Roi desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Roi worked all of his life as a seamstress, and raised 2 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 $3,300 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $1,850
• Medication and prescriptions: $710
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $250
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $490
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Shared this with my family. Sent it to 36 people at work. God bless!
Thinking of you, Leah. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Tel Aviv.
So sorry you're going through this, Leah. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Edmonton this morning. All the best.
Get well soon. My neighbor in Belém donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Tel Aviv.
