I'm caring for me, who's 83. After worsening Parkinson's disease Hillel can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Hillel desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Hillel worked all of his life as a shopkeeper, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $1,050 goes:
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $155
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $320
• Medication and prescriptions: $575
I hope life is good to you.

Thank you all. We're at 8% now ($85). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for medication and prescriptions is now scheduled.
