Mim wants to stay at home - help fund eight months of care
Mim can't afford the care She needs after a fall and hip fracture; we're asking for $800.

I'm caring for my mother, who's 80. After a fall and hip fracture Mim can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Mim 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.
Mim worked all of her life as a factory worker, 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $800 goes:
• Medication and prescriptions: $110
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $105
• Part-time carer (eight months): $585
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 26 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
