I'm caring for my father, who's 78. After a heart attack Rohit can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Rohit desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Rohit worked all of his life as a bus driver, 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. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $650 goes: • Part-time carer (three months): $420 • Medication and prescriptions: $85 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $70 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $75 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    • Thanks for sharing this, Yamini. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 23 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Seattle.
