Salman wants to stay at home - help fund six months of care
Salman can't afford the care He needs after a heart attack; we're asking for $650.
🇵🇰 Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan942 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 92. After a heart attack Salman can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Salman desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Salman worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 3 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $650 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $450
• Medication and prescriptions: $60
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $60
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $80
I hope life is good to you.

Take care. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. All the best!
Thinking of you and your family. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Lahore
Hang in there, Zara. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I hope December is when things finally get easier!
Wishing Salman a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Wish I lived closer to Mapo so I could bring a meal. Love from Nairobi
Good luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Put this on a community board in Sacramento this morning. Greetings from Sacramento.
hope this works out for you. After 17 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
Stay strong, Zara. Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Lahore.
You're not alone, Zara. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Hamilton.
