I'm caring for my father, who's 75. After the death of his spouse Yash can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Yash desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Yash worked all of his life as a shopkeeper, and raised 5 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 $900 goes: โ€ข Part-time carer (six months): $760 โ€ข Medication and prescriptions: $50 โ€ข Hospital bed and mattress rental: $40 โ€ข Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $50 Every share and every dollar helps. - Diya

  • Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry

    • How is Yash doing now?

        Hang in there, Diya. Hope this works out for you. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.

        • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Yash!

          • Diya N. AroraOwnerAnswer

            It's all in the list in the story. part-time carer (six months) is the big one at $760, I'll post a receipt when it's paid.

        • Mwanaisha MremaPhoto verified

          Stay strong, Diya. Your post was clear and honest. Sent it to 23 people at work. God bless

          • Best of luck, Diya. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.

            • Rooting for you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Nakuru donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Pune.

              • Sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together.
