Home care fund for Simiyu in Entebbe

I'm caring for me, who's 81. After a stroke last March Simiyu can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Simiyu desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Simiyu 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 six months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $850 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $660 • Medication and prescriptions: $65 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $50 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $75 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
