Kirit wants to stay at home - help fund six months of care
Kirit can't afford the care He needs after a heart attack; we're asking for $700.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India838 views
I'm caring for me, who's 74. After a heart attack Kirit can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Kirit desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Kirit worked all of his life as a carpenter, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $700 goes:
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $50
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $55
• Part-time carer (six months): $595
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 12 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
So sorry you're going through this. Wishing Kirit a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My neighbor in Depok donated after I showed her your page. All the best.
Thinking of you and your family, Kirit. Looking forward to the next update. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best
