I'm caring for my mother, who's 91. After a stroke last July Marta can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Marta desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Marta worked all of her life as a seamstress, and raised 2 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for four 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 $950 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $670
• Medication and prescriptions: $115
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $55
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $110
Glad we found this place.

Stay strong, Natalia. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
Take care, Natalia. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Aberdeen but we're thinking of you.
Best of luck, Natalia. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.

thinking of you and your family, Natalia. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Mexicali.
