I'm caring for me, who's 75. After the death of his spouse Phúc can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Phúc desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Phúc worked all of his life as a factory worker, 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 $550 goes: • Part-time carer (eight months): $400 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $50 • Medication and prescriptions: $100 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Phúc
