I'm caring for my mother, who's 84. After the death of her spouse Renata can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Renata desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Renata worked all of her life as a nurse, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for four months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $1,650 goes: • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $70 • Medication and prescriptions: $240 • Part-time carer (four months): $1,340 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
