I'm caring for me, who's 92. After a stroke last June Josefina can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Josefina 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.
Josefina worked all of her life as a bus driver, and raised 3 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 $250 goes:
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $85
• Medication and prescriptions: $105
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $60
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
