I'm caring for my father, who's 94. After a heart attack Yuri can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Yuri desperately wants to stay at home. I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Yuri worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 5 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 $1,500 goes: • Part-time carer (four months): $1,250 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $135 • Medication and prescriptions: $115 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

    hope it all works out. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Howrah so I could bring a meal. Blessings.

        Take care, Daria. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Moscow!
