Home care fund for Ravi in Mumbai
Ravi can't afford the care He needs after a heart attack; we're asking for $250.

I'm caring for my father, who's 74. After a heart attack Ravi can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Ravi desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Ravi worked all of his 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 three 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 $250 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $110
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $55
• Medication and prescriptions: $85
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thinking of you and your family, Umesh. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best
you're not alone, Umesh. Hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update.
