I'm caring for my mother, who's 90. After a fall and hip fracture Kiara can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Kiara 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.
Kiara worked all of her life as a schoolteacher, and raised 3 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 $550 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $70
• Part-time carer (four months): $410
• Medication and prescriptions: $70
With deep gratitude,
Rohit
