Help Ngozi stay in her own home with eight months of part-time care.

I'm caring for my mother, who's 78. After worsening Parkinson's disease Ngozi can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Ngozi desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Ngozi worked all of her life as a bus driver, and raised 2 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. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $600 goes: • Part-time carer (eight months): $500 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $60 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $40 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Ebuka

      so sorry you're going through this, Ebuka. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
