I'm caring for me, who's 87. After a heart attack Ludwig can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Ludwig 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.
Ludwig worked all of his life as a carpenter, and raised 2 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 $2,900 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $1,950
• Medication and prescriptions: $600
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $180
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $170
Glad we found this place.

wishing you peace. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Thủ Đức
Thanks for sharing this. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I'm in public service myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings!
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ludwig
Part-time carer (eight months) is $1,950 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Happy to explain more.
I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Fresno so I could bring a meal. Love from Saint Petersburg
Rooting for you. Hope you get there. We're a small family in Surat but we're thinking of you.
So sorry you're going through this, Ludwig. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours
Hang in there, Ludwig. Get well soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Puebla.
Sending love. Hope the doctors have good news. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you!
