I'm caring for my mother, who's 78. After a heart attack Vivian can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Vivian 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.
Vivian worked all of her life as a schoolteacher, 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 $5,700 goes:
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $370
• Part-time carer (four months): $5,000
• Medication and prescriptions: $330
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
