I'm caring for my mother, who's 79. After a heart attack Giorgia can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Giorgia desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Giorgia worked all of her life as a farmer, 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 $4,950 goes: • Part-time carer (four months): $4,000 • Medication and prescriptions: $240 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $290 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $420 If you're reading this, thank you.

    keep going, Elena. Wishing Giorgia a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
