I'm caring for me, who's 95. After a stroke last April Ndeye can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Ndeye desperately wants to stay at home. I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Ndeye worked all of her life as a seamstress, and raised 4 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 $1,350 goes: • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $290 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $330 • Medication and prescriptions: $730 Thank you for reading my story.
