Kazimierz, 76, needs daily care to stay at home, and the family is raising $1,600 for a carer and medicines.

I'm caring for me, who's 76. After a diagnosis of dementia Kazimierz can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Kazimierz 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.
Kazimierz worked all of his 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 three months will make a huge difference.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $1,600 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $1,000
• Medication and prescriptions: $210
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $145
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $245
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Hope things get better soon, Kazimierz. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care.
you're not alone. Hope this works out for you. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Gothenburg
wishing Kazimierz a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Wish I lived closer to Wudil so I could bring a meal.
hope the doctors have good news. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
