Home care fund for Vasyl in Saint Petersburg
Help Vasyl stay in his own home with four months of part-time care.
🇷🇺 Saint Petersburg, Saint Petersburg, Russia2,042 views
I'm caring for me, who's 74. After worsening Parkinson's disease Vasyl can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Vasyl desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Vasyl worked all of his life as a carpenter, and raised 3 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 $1,150 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $820
• Medication and prescriptions: $120
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $130
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $80
Every share and every dollar helps.

keep going, Vasyl. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Accra but we're thinking of you. Blessings
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Kochi
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Saint Petersburg.
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about part-time carer (four months), advice is welcome too. Ask me anything else.
Best of luck, Vasyl. Shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
Thinking of you, Vasyl. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
hope the doctors have good news. I'll check back for the next update. All the best
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Vasyl
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. part-time carer (four months) comes first ($820) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for looking so closely.
Praying for you. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I'll check back for the next update. God bless

Hope you get there. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.
