Festus wants to stay at home - help fund four months of care

I'm caring for my father, who's 78. After a diagnosis of dementia Festus can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Festus 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. Festus worked all of his life as a shopkeeper, 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. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $600 goes: • Part-time carer (four months): $440 • Medication and prescriptions: $50 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $35 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $75 If you're reading this, thank you. - Okechukwu
