Guadalupe can't afford the care She needs after a stroke last July; we're asking for $2,450.

I'm caring for my mother, who's 89. After a stroke last July Guadalupe can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Guadalupe desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Guadalupe worked all of her life as a shopkeeper, and raised 4 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 $2,450 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $1,400
• Medication and prescriptions: $530
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $320
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $200
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Best of luck, Héctor. Hope the doctors have good news. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best
Sending good thoughts. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
Wishing Guadalupe a smooth procedure and a full recovery
