Home care fund for Ewa in Radom
Ewa, 76, needs daily care to stay at home, and the family is raising $1,700 for a carer and medicines.
🇵🇱 Radom, Masovia, Poland2,661 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 76. After a heart attack Ewa can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Ewa desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Ewa worked all of her life as a farmer, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for eight 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 $1,700 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $1,100
• Medication and prescriptions: $290
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $180
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $130
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

good luck. Get well soon!
Thinking of you and your family, Zuzanna. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out.
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Radom!
Thank you. If you're in Radom I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. I'll keep the page updated.
Wishing you peace. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Narayanganj so I could bring a meal. Take care
Wishing you the best. Wishing Ewa a smooth procedure and a full recovery. It's not much but it's yours.
Wishing you peace. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Greetings from Medellín
