I'm caring for me, who's 85. After a diagnosis of dementia Lukman can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Lukman 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. Lukman worked all of his life as a nurse, 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 $850 goes: • Part-time carer (eight months): $660 • Medication and prescriptions: $50 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $35 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $105 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
