I'm caring for my father, who's 78. After a stroke last August Joshua can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Joshua 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. Joshua worked all of his life as a factory worker, and raised 4 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 $3,650 goes: • Part-time carer (four months): $2,500 • Medication and prescriptions: $490 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $340 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $320 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Everly
