Home care fund for Hyun-ju in Incheon
Help Hyun-ju stay in her own home with six months of part-time care.
🇰🇷 South Korea500 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 96. After a diagnosis of dementia Hyun-ju can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Hyun-ju desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Hyun-ju worked all of her life as a factory worker, and raised 2 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $1,000 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $430
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $125
• Medication and prescriptions: $445
Thank you so much.

Hope things get better soon, Tae-hoon. Get well soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Incheon.
sending good thoughts, Tae-hoon. It takes guts to ask. Well done. All the best.
Thinking of you and your family, Tae-hoon. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Incheon
sending good thoughts, Tae-hoon. Get well soon. God bless!
