Rima wants to stay at home - help fund three months of care
Rima can't afford the care She needs after the death of her spouse; we're asking for $200.

I'm caring for my mother, who's 74. After the death of her spouse Rima can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Rima 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.
Rima worked all of her life as a shopkeeper, and raised 2 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 $200 goes:
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $65
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $65
• Medication and prescriptions: $70
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
