Home care fund for Travis in London
Travis can't afford the care He needs after a fall and hip fracture; we're asking for $3,800.
🇬🇧 London, England, United Kingdom967 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 87. After a fall and hip fracture Travis can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Travis 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.
Travis worked all of his life as a seamstress, and raised 4 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 $3,800 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $2,400
• Medication and prescriptions: $600
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $380
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $420
I hope life is good to you.

stay strong. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from The Hague
Hope it all works out, Easton. Shared this with my family. Don't give up. Take care
Hang in there, Easton. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Sending strength, Easton. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Hope things get better soon. Wishing Travis a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Sent it to 22 people at work. Blessings.
