Miguel wants to stay at home - help fund three months of care
Help Miguel stay in his own home with three months of part-time care.
🇵🇭 Mandaue, Cebu, Philippines889 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 87. After a heart attack Miguel can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Miguel desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Miguel worked all of his life as a carpenter, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for three months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $750 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $75
• Medication and prescriptions: $115
• Part-time carer (three months): $560
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Berlin
So sorry you're going through this, Kristine. Shared this with my family. All the best.
Rooting for you, Kristine. Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 37 people at work. Love from Miami.
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We're a small family in Dallas but we're thinking of you. Take care.
You're not alone, Kristine. Get well soon. I hope October is when things finally get easier.
