I'm caring for my father, who's 92. After a stroke last May Emon can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Emon 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. Emon 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 six 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 $650 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $540 • Medication and prescriptions: $50 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $20 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $40 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
