Home care fund for Gabriel in Toledo
Gabriel can't afford the care He needs after the death of his spouse; we're asking for $3,600.
🇺🇸 United States3,048 views
I'm caring for me, who's 77. After the death of his spouse Gabriel can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Gabriel desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Gabriel worked all of his life as a factory worker, and raised 4 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.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $3,600 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $510
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $310
• Part-time carer (six months): $2,780
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Sending good thoughts. Hope the doctors have good news. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care.
Hang in there, Gabriel. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Mesa!
