Home care fund for Rubina in Sukkur
Rubina can't afford the care She needs after worsening Parkinson's disease; we're asking for $550.
🇵🇰 Sukkur, Sindh, Pakistan218 views
I'm caring for me, who's 74. After worsening Parkinson's disease Rubina can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Rubina desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Rubina worked all of her 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 eight months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $550 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $360
• Medication and prescriptions: $85
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $25
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $80
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
