Medina
I'm caring for my father, who's 95. After a diagnosis of dementia Bilal can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Bilal 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. Bilal worked all of his life as a shopkeeper, and raised 5 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 $1,750 goes: • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $320 • Part-time carer (three months): $1,050 • Medication and prescriptions: $380 Thank you so much. - Salma
