Home care fund for Siriporn in Bangkok
Help Siriporn stay in her own home with three months of part-time care.
🇹🇭 Thailand868 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 90. After the death of her spouse Siriporn can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Siriporn 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.
Siriporn worked all of her life as a factory worker, and raised 2 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 $1,400 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $890
• Medication and prescriptions: $230
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $125
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $155
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

sending strength, Sombat. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Istanbul.
Take care, Sombat. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best
