I'm caring for my father, who's 74. After a diagnosis of dementia Hendra can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Hendra desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Hendra worked all of his life as a factory worker, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $250 goes:
• Medication and prescriptions: $120
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $50
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $80
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Good luck, Fitria. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 19 people at work. Greetings from Hanoi
