Liza wants to stay at home - help fund six months of care
Liza, 78, needs daily care to stay at home, and the family is raising $950 for a carer and medicines.
🇵🇭 Manila, Metro Manila, Philippines727 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 78. After a stroke last May Liza can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Liza desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Liza worked all of her life as a farmer, and raised 5 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 $950 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $750
• Medication and prescriptions: $80
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $40
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $80

Thanks for sharing this, Dante. Shared this with my family. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
Wishing you peace, Dante. Hope you get there. After 22 years in farming I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Take care.
Best of luck. Hope you get there. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Saint Petersburg!
thinking of you. Hope the doctors have good news. Wish I lived closer to Arusha so I could bring a meal. God bless
Thinking of you and your family, Dante. Hope the doctors have good news. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Manila.
Praying for you, Dante. Get well soon. Please keep us posted. Take care
