Home care fund for Myra in Cardiff

I'm caring for my mother, who's 76. After a diagnosis of dementia Myra can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Myra 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. Myra worked all of her life as a seamstress, and raised 5 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. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $4,850 goes: • Part-time carer (eight months): $3,800 • Medication and prescriptions: $470 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $260 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $320 Thank you for reading my story. - Pankaj
