Nuria wants to stay at home - help fund four months of care
Nuria can't afford the care She needs after a heart attack; we're asking for $3,300.

I'm caring for my mother, who's 85. After a heart attack Nuria can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Nuria desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Nuria worked all of her life as a nurse, 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.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $3,300 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $2,600
• Medication and prescriptions: $220
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $210
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $270
With deep gratitude,
Natalia

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Nuria
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. part-time carer (four months) comes first ($2,600) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks, that means a lot.
Wishing you peace. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. God bless.
Keep going, Natalia. Get well soon.
Praying for you, Natalia. This could happen to any of us.
Sending love. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
Thinking of you, Natalia. Your post was clear and honest. Blessings.
