Noah wants to stay at home - help fund four months of care
Noah can't afford the care He needs after a diagnosis of dementia; we're asking for $3,150.

I'm caring for my father, who's 91. After a diagnosis of dementia Noah can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Noah 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.
Noah worked all of his life as a shopkeeper, and raised 2 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for four 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 $3,150 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $2,100
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $350
• Medication and prescriptions: $700
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
