I'm caring for my father, who's 76. After a heart attack Kreesan can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Kreesan desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Kreesan worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 4 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $950 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $740
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $125
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $85
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
