I'm caring for my father, who's 78. After the death of his spouse Nicola can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Nicola desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Nicola worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $900 goes: • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $210 • Medication and prescriptions: $450 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $240 Thanks for reading all this. - Alberto
