Elise wants to stay at home - help fund eight months of care

I'm caring for my mother, who's 88. After a heart attack Elise can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Elise 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. Elise worked all of her life as a shopkeeper, and raised 2 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 $1,250 goes: • Part-time carer (eight months): $890 • Medication and prescriptions: $180 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $90 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $90 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Gabriel
