I'm caring for me, who's 79. After the death of his spouse Evans can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Evans desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Evans worked all of his life as a carpenter, and raised 2 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.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $650 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $530
• Medication and prescriptions: $55
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $25
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $40
Thank you so much.
- Evans
