I'm caring for my father, who's 77. After a diagnosis of dementia Pranav can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Pranav desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Pranav worked all of his life as a seamstress, and raised 3 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 $600 goes: • Part-time carer (eight months): $330 • Medication and prescriptions: $95 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $75 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $100 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
