I'm caring for my father, who's 77. After worsening Parkinson's disease Aarav can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Aarav desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Aarav 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 six months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $3,750 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $2,400
• Medication and prescriptions: $370
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $300
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $680
Thanks for reading all this.

Rooting for you, Shweta. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Warsaw but we're thinking of you!
your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Kharkiv.
wishing you peace, Shweta. Hope this works out for you. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Buffalo.
Thanks for sharing this, Shweta. Looking forward to the next update. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Giza
