I'm caring for my mother, who's 80. After worsening Parkinson's disease Utami can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Utami 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.
Utami worked all of her life as a bus driver, and raised 5 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 $750 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $590
• Medication and prescriptions: $105
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $55
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
