Home care fund for Dhruv in Mumbai
Help Dhruv stay in his own home with three months of part-time care.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India1,063 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 80. After a fall and hip fracture Dhruv can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Dhruv 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.
Dhruv worked all of his life as a seamstress, and raised 2 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $700 goes:
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $45
• Part-time carer (three months): $560
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $95
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
