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.
