Home care fund for Eunice in Likoni
Eunice can't afford the care She needs after worsening Parkinson's disease; we're asking for $1,100.

I'm caring for my mother, who's 79. After worsening Parkinson's disease Eunice can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Eunice desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Eunice worked all of her life as a seamstress, and raised 3 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $1,100 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $870
• Medication and prescriptions: $60
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $70
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $100
With deep gratitude,
Otieno

Sending strength, Otieno. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless.
hang in there, Otieno. Get well soon.
take care, Otieno. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Embakasi donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
Good luck. Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Likoni.
keep going. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Badagry.
Rooting for you, Otieno. Get well soon. I hope August is when things finally get easier. Blessings!
