Quezon City
I'm caring for my mother, who's 77. After a fall and hip fracture Gianna can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Gianna desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Gianna worked all of her life as a bus driver, 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. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $650 goes: • Part-time carer (eight months): $530 • Medication and prescriptions: $80 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $40 Thank you so much.
