I'm caring for my mother, who's 92. After a diagnosis of dementia Isha can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Isha desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Isha worked all of her life as a seamstress, 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 $800 goes: • Part-time carer (four months): $560 • Medication and prescriptions: $105 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $60 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $75 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Prachi
