Iwan wants to stay at home - help fund three months of care
Iwan can't afford the care He needs after a diagnosis of dementia; we're asking for $450.

I'm caring for my father, who's 76. After a diagnosis of dementia Iwan can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Iwan desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Iwan worked all of his life as a schoolteacher, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for three months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $450 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $290
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $55
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $105
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Wishing Iwan a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best
You're not alone, Pandu. Shared this with my family. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Bandung.
Praying for you. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.

You're not alone, Pandu. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Jakarta.
thanks for sharing this. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
