I'm caring for my father, who's 94. After a diagnosis of dementia Mukesh can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Mukesh desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Mukesh worked all of his life as a factory worker, and raised 4 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. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $650 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $310 • Medication and prescriptions: $145 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $70 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $125 With deep gratitude, Akash
