Home care fund for Vani in Hubballi
Vani, 79, needs daily care to stay at home, and the family is raising $550 for a carer and medicines.

I'm caring for my mother, who's 79. After worsening Parkinson's disease Vani can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Vani 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.
Vani worked all of her life as a carpenter, and raised 2 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 $550 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $370
• Medication and prescriptions: $100
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $40
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $40
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Stay strong, Mukesh. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Wish I lived closer to Newcastle upon Tyne so I could bring a meal!
Wishing you peace, Mukesh. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
sending strength, Mukesh. Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
Hope things get better soon. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless
Hope it all works out, Mukesh. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
