Home care fund for Manal in Melbourne
Manal cannot afford the care She needs after a fall and hip fracture; we are asking for $4,750.
🇦🇺 Australia1,993 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 86. After a fall and hip fracture Manal can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Manal desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Manal worked all of her life as a carpenter, and raised 3 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 $4,750 goes:
• Medication and prescriptions: $420
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $570
• Part-time carer (eight months): $3,760
With deep gratitude,
Kamal

so sorry you're going through this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Bacolod so I could bring a meal. God bless.
Sending strength, Kamal. Hope you get there. All the best
thinking of you and your family, Kamal. Hope the doctors have good news.
Wishing you peace. Hope the doctors have good news. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.
wishing you peace. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from San Francisco.
