I'm caring for my mother, who's 75. After a fall and hip fracture Nicole can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Nicole desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Nicole 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 three months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $900 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $610
• Medication and prescriptions: $155
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $35
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $100
With deep gratitude,
Carlo

So sorry you're going through this. Wishing Nicole a smooth procedure and a full recovery. All the best.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
