I'm caring for me, who's 74. After a diagnosis of dementia Peyton can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Peyton 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. Peyton worked all of her life as a schoolteacher, 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. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $3,750 goes: โ€ข Part-time carer (eight months): $2,400 โ€ข Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $580 โ€ข Medication and prescriptions: $770 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
