Home care fund for Furkan in Antalya
Furkan can't afford the care He needs after the death of his spouse; we're asking for $1,100.
🇹🇷 Antalya, Türkiye1,682 views
I'm caring for me, who's 85. After the death of his spouse Furkan can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Furkan desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Furkan worked all of his life as a carpenter, and raised 4 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 $1,100 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $145
• Part-time carer (eight months): $860
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $95
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Wishing you peace, Furkan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless.
Sending good thoughts. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too
