Home care fund for Vihaan in Howrah
Help Vihaan stay in his own home with six months of part-time care.
🇮🇳 Howrah, West Bengal, India1,582 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 82. After a stroke last April Vihaan can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Vihaan 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.
Vihaan worked all of his life as a bus driver, 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $500 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $280
• Medication and prescriptions: $120
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $65
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $35
I hope life is good to you.
