Home care fund for Vinayak in Varanasi

Vinayak can't afford the care He needs after a diagnosis of dementia; we're asking for $750.

I'm caring for my father, who's 86. After a diagnosis of dementia Vinayak can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Vinayak 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. Vinayak worked all of his life as a nurse, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for eight 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 $750 goes: • Part-time carer (eight months): $640 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $30 • Medication and prescriptions: $80 I hope life is good to you.

        Wishing you the best, Neha. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Varanasi!
