I'm caring for my mother, who's 83. After a heart attack Sofia can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Sofia desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Sofia 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $900 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $770
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $45
• Medication and prescriptions: $85
Every share and every dollar helps.

Wishing you peace. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double!
