I'm caring for my father, who's 79. After worsening Parkinson's disease Faisal can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Faisal 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. Faisal 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 four months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $200 goes: • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $45 • Medication and prescriptions: $80 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $75 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Rabia

      Thank you. If you're in Islamabad I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.

  • Take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'll check back for the next update
