I'm caring for my mother, who's 83. After a fall and hip fracture Oluwaseun can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Oluwaseun 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. Oluwaseun 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 eight months will make a huge difference. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $200 goes: • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $65 • Medication and prescriptions: $60 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $75 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
