Megan wants to stay at home - help fund eight months of care
Help Megan stay in her own home with eight months of part-time care.
🇿🇦 KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa709 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 80. After a fall and hip fracture Megan can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Megan desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Megan worked all of her life as a seamstress, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for eight months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $1,050 goes:
• Medication and prescriptions: $155
• Part-time carer (eight months): $760
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $135
Every share and every dollar helps.
