Grayson wants to stay at home - help fund four months of care
Help Grayson stay in his own home with four months of part-time care.
🇬🇧 United Kingdom977 views
I'm caring for me, who's 75. After worsening Parkinson's disease Grayson can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Grayson 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.
Grayson worked all of his life as a schoolteacher, and raised 3 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 $4,050 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $3,100
• Medication and prescriptions: $510
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $240
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $200
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Rooting for you, Grayson. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of London.
