Eva wants to stay at home - help fund four months of care
Help Eva stay in her own home with four months of part-time care.
🇺🇸 Huntsville, Alabama, United States1,856 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 75. After a diagnosis of dementia Eva can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Eva desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Eva 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 four months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $6,450 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $4,900
• Medication and prescriptions: $840
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $420
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $290

hang in there. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless
Best of luck, Logan. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 31 people at work.
Hang in there, Logan. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care
Take care, Logan. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Huntsville.
Best of luck, Logan. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor in Mecca donated after I showed her your page
