I'm caring for my mother, who's 91. After worsening Parkinson's disease Barbara can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Barbara desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Barbara worked all of her life as a carpenter, and raised 2 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 $2,100 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $1,550 • Medication and prescriptions: $210 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $140 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $200 Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Emilia

  1. 2% there. I made the first payment toward mobility aids and bathroom adaptations. Thank you.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($32 in total) I met with the care agency and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Wanted to say thank you properly. 1% funded and the plan for part-time carer is now scheduled.
