Home care fund for Manoj in Nashik
Manoj can't afford the care He needs after a fall and hip fracture; we're asking for $950.
🇮🇳 Nashik, Maharashtra, India2,482 views
I'm caring for me, who's 94. After a fall and hip fracture Manoj can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Manoj 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.
Manoj worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for three months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $950 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $690
• Medication and prescriptions: $105
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $35
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $120
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
Updates from Manoj
Update from Nashik: I met with the care agency and confirmed the amounts. We're at 80% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
