I'm caring for me, who's 90. After a heart attack Natália can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Natália 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.
Natália worked all of her life as a carpenter, and raised 3 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.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $350 goes:
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $80
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $135
• Medication and prescriptions: $135
If you're reading this, thank you.

Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.

Rooting for you, Natália. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
You're not alone, Natália. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Prayagraj but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Pelotas
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Pelotas.
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Thinking of Pelotas.
Hope it all works out, Natália. Hope the doctors have good news. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
