Tema
I'm caring for my mother, who's 96. After the death of her spouse Theresa can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Theresa desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Theresa worked all of her life as a factory worker, and raised 3 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. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $700 goes: • Part-time carer (three months): $510 • Medication and prescriptions: $75 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $55 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $60 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Updates from Sandra

  1. Thank you all. We're at 2% now ($17). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for hospital bed and mattress rental is now scheduled.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($17 in total) we've started the first stage. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
