I'm caring for my mother, who's 75. After a fall and hip fracture Avery can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Avery desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Avery worked all of her 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 three months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $5,200 goes: • Part-time carer (three months): $4,400 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $250 • Medication and prescriptions: $550 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Updates from Aurora

  1. We're at 1% thanks to 4 of you. the plan for mobility aids and bathroom adaptations is now scheduled. More news soon.

  2. Quick update: $70 raised so far (1%). I made the first payment toward medication and prescriptions. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  3. Thank you all. We're at 1% now ($50). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the care agency and confirmed the amounts.
