Home care fund for Latha in Nagpur
Latha can't afford the care She needs after a diagnosis of dementia; we're asking for $750.
🇮🇳 India1,203 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 90. After a diagnosis of dementia Latha can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Latha desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Latha worked all of her life as a schoolteacher, and raised 2 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.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $750 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $60
• Part-time carer (six months): $640
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $50
If you're reading this, thank you.
