Home care fund for Roman in Las Cruces
Help Roman stay in his own home with eight months of part-time care.
🇺🇸 United States834 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 81. After the death of his spouse Roman can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Roman 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.
Roman worked all of his life as a factory worker, 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.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $3,800 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $2,500
• Medication and prescriptions: $400
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $340
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $560
Thank you so much.

Good luck. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Wish I lived closer to São Paulo so I could bring a meal
