Home care fund for Nuria in Mérida
Nuria can't afford the care She needs after a fall and hip fracture; we're asking for $450.
🇲🇽 Mérida, Yucatán, Mexico1,074 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 81. After a fall and hip fracture Nuria can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Nuria desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Nuria 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 $450 goes:
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $110
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $210
• Medication and prescriptions: $130
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
