Home care fund for Tanya in Kingston
Help Tanya stay in her own home with four months of part-time care.
🇯🇲 Kingston, Kingston, Jamaica869 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 84. After a heart attack Tanya can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Tanya 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.
Tanya worked all of her life as a nurse, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for four months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $1,450 goes:
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $110
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $95
• Part-time carer (four months): $1,245
I hope life is good to you.

Stay strong, Nicole. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Guarulhos.
