I'm caring for my mother, who's 88. After a heart attack Isabelle can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Isabelle desperately wants to stay at home. I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Isabelle 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 eight months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $4,600 goes: • Part-time carer (eight months): $3,550 • Medication and prescriptions: $560 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $200 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $290 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  • Hope the doctors have good news. Wish I lived closer to Ekurhuleni so I could bring a meal. Take care.

    • Wishing Isabelle a smooth procedure and a full recovery. God bless

      • hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best
