Kristine wants to stay at home - help fund six months of care

I'm caring for my mother, who's 77. After worsening Parkinson's disease Kristine can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Kristine desperately wants to stay at home. I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Kristine worked all of her life as a shopkeeper, 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 $650 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $410 • Medication and prescriptions: $50 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $70 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $120 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
