I'm caring for me, who's 89. After a fall and hip fracture Quyên can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Quyên desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Quyên worked all of her life as a schoolteacher, 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. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $550 goes: • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $95 • Part-time carer (eight months): $410 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $45 Every share and every dollar helps.
