Home care fund for Halima in Thika
Halima can't afford the care She needs after a heart attack; we're asking for $150.
🇰🇪 Thika, Kiambu, Kenya985 views
I'm caring for me, who's 77. After a heart attack Halima can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Halima 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.
Halima worked all of her life as a seamstress, and raised 5 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 $150 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $55
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $35
• Medication and prescriptions: $60
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
