I'm caring for my father, who's 81. After worsening Parkinson's disease Deepak can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Deepak desperately wants to stay at home. I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Deepak worked all of his life as a schoolteacher, 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 $550 goes: • Part-time carer (three months): $370 • Medication and prescriptions: $75 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $50 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $55 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Anita
