I'm caring for my mother, who's 92. After a stroke last July Yasemin can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Yasemin desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Yasemin 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 six months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $1,350 goes: • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $125 • Part-time carer (six months): $1,100 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $125 I hope life is good to you. - Tolga
