Home care fund for Pavithra in Pune

I'm caring for my mother, who's 91. After a diagnosis of dementia Pavithra can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Pavithra 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. Pavithra 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 $550 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $320 • Medication and prescriptions: $125 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $45 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $60 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Praveen
