Home care fund for Krishna in Aurangabad
Krishna can't afford the care He needs after a diagnosis of dementia; we're asking for $650.
🇮🇳 India622 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 90. After a diagnosis of dementia Krishna can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Krishna 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.
Krishna worked all of his life as a schoolteacher, and raised 5 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 $650 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $500
• Medication and prescriptions: $60
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $60
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $30
Thanks for being kind about this.
