Home care fund for Jewel in Dhaka
Help Jewel stay in his own home with four months of part-time care.
🇧🇩 Dhaka, Dhaka, Bangladesh702 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 93. After worsening Parkinson's disease Jewel can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Jewel desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Jewel worked all of his 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.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $650 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $470
• Medication and prescriptions: $80
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $45
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $55
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
