Home care fund for Mahesh in Bhopal
Mahesh can't afford the care He needs after a fall and hip fracture; we're asking for $550.
🇮🇳 Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India1,283 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 91. After a fall and hip fracture Mahesh can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Mahesh desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Mahesh worked all of his life as a seamstress, and raised 4 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 $550 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $360
• Medication and prescriptions: $95
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $95

looking forward to the next update. Love from Kyiv.
Praying for you. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
so sorry you're going through this, Tarun. Shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
rooting for you. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Noida but we're thinking of you
Good luck, Tarun. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Wishing Mahesh a smooth procedure and a full recovery!

Thinking of you and your family, Tarun. Your post was clear and honest!
thanks for sharing this, Tarun. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
You're not alone, Tarun. Shared it with a few friends.
Sending good thoughts. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Cầu Giấy
