I'm caring for my mother, who's 82. After a heart attack Rose can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Rose desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Rose worked all of her life as a factory worker, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $450 goes: โ€ข Part-time carer (six months): $270 โ€ข Medication and prescriptions: $35 โ€ข Hospital bed and mattress rental: $50 โ€ข Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $95 Thanks for reading all this. - Namukasa

    • So sorry you're going through this, Namukasa. Wishing Rose a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Dar es Salaam.
