I'm caring for me, who's 81. After a stroke last June Adewale can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Adewale 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. Adewale worked all of his 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 $600 goes: • Part-time carer (four months): $380 • Medication and prescriptions: $90 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $60 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $70 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Adewale
