I'm caring for my father, who's 83. After a fall and hip fracture Rajan can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Rajan 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. Rajan worked all of his life as a nurse, and raised 3 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 $950 goes: • Part-time carer (three months): $820 • Medication and prescriptions: $110 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $20 Glad we found this place. - Shreya
