Kirana can't afford the care She needs after a fall and hip fracture; we're asking for $700.

I'm caring for me, who's 84. After a fall and hip fracture Kirana can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Kirana desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Kirana worked all of her 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 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 $700 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $520
• Medication and prescriptions: $135
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $45
Thank you for reading my story.
