Home care fund for Gaurav in Lucknow
Gaurav cannot afford the care He needs after worsening Parkinson's disease; we are asking for $850.
🇮🇳 Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India448 views
I'm caring for me, who's 91. After worsening Parkinson's disease Gaurav can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Gaurav 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.
Gaurav worked all of his life as a bus driver, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for three 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 $850 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $640
• Medication and prescriptions: $130
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $35
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $45
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
