Galih can't afford the care He needs after a fall and hip fracture; we're asking for $700.

I'm caring for my father, who's 80. After a fall and hip fracture Galih can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Galih 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.
Galih worked all of his life as a bus driver, and raised 5 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 $700 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $540
• Medication and prescriptions: $50
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $70
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $40
I hope life is good to you.
