Home care fund for Novi in Makassar
Novi can't afford the care She needs after a stroke last July; we're asking for $850.
🇮🇩 Indonesia762 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 76. After a stroke last July Novi can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Novi 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.
Novi worked all of her life as a factory worker, and raised 5 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 $850 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $670
• Medication and prescriptions: $65
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $60
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $55
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Hope things get better soon, Muhammad. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Taguig.
thinking of you and your family, Muhammad. Wishing Novi a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Greetings from Mohammedia.
Sending strength. Hope this works out for you. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Your post was clear and honest. Put this on a community board in Depok this morning
Good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Minneapolis.
Shared it with a few friends. After 24 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
Hope things get better soon, Muhammad. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My neighbor in Mbale donated after I showed her your page. Blessings
