I'm caring for me, who's 95. After a fall and hip fracture Mia can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Mia 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. Mia worked all of her life as a shopkeeper, and raised 5 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 $3,950 goes: โ€ข Part-time carer (three months): $2,900 โ€ข Hospital bed and mattress rental: $550 โ€ข Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $500 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Mia
