I'm caring for my father, who's 89. After a heart attack Min-jun can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Min-jun desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Min-jun worked all of his life as a bus driver, and raised 4 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 $2,150 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $1,400
• Medication and prescriptions: $420
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $140
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $190
Thank you for reading my story.
