Mohan wants to stay at home - help fund three months of care
Mohan can't afford the care He needs after a heart attack; we're asking for $800.

I'm caring for my father, who's 96. After a heart attack Mohan can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Mohan desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Mohan worked all of his life as a schoolteacher, and raised 5 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $800 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $540
• Medication and prescriptions: $135
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $60
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $65
I hope life is good to you.
