Samir wants to stay at home - help fund four months of care
Help Samir stay in his own home with four months of part-time care.
🇪🇸 Málaga, Andalusia, Spain4,304 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 75. After a heart attack Samir can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Samir 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.
Samir worked all of his life as a seamstress, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for four months will make a huge difference.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $3,550 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $2,800
• Medication and prescriptions: $290
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $120
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $340
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Good luck, Hussein. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Magelang.
Take care. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Málaga
Sending love, Hussein. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Take care, Hussein. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
