I'm caring for my father, who's 95. After worsening Parkinson's disease Edgardo can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Edgardo desperately wants to stay at home. I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Edgardo worked all of his life as a factory worker, 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 $300 goes: • Medication and prescriptions: $105 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $60 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $135 I hope life is good to you. - Carlo
