I'm caring for my father, who's 81. After a heart attack Gbenga can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Gbenga 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. Gbenga worked all of his life as a carpenter, and raised 2 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 $450 goes: • Part-time carer (four months): $290 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $55 • Medication and prescriptions: $105 Thanks for being kind about this. - Funmilayo

  • Hope you get there. After 26 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Pune.

    • Thinking of you and your family. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Kathmandu.
