Omondi wants to stay at home - help fund three months of care
Help Omondi stay in his own home with three months of part-time care.

I'm caring for me, who's 80. After the death of his spouse Omondi can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Omondi desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Omondi worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 3 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for three 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 $550 goes:
• Medication and prescriptions: $60
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $35
• Part-time carer (three months): $455
Glad we found this place.

Hang in there, Omondi. Hope you get there. Take care.
Thinking of you, Omondi. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest.
Praying for you, Omondi. Wishing Omondi a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
Thanks for sharing this, Omondi. Get well soon. After 9 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
Keep going. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Greetings from Latina.
