I'm caring for my father, who's 91. After a stroke last June Brian can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Brian desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Brian worked all of his life as a factory worker, 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. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $2,900 goes: • Part-time carer (four months): $2,000 • Medication and prescriptions: $440 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $460 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Caroline
