Shoaib wants to stay at home - help fund four months of care

Help Shoaib stay in his own home with four months of part-time care.

I'm caring for my father, who's 88. After a diagnosis of dementia Shoaib can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Shoaib 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. Shoaib worked all of his life as a bus driver, and raised 2 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. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $550 goes: • Medication and prescriptions: $115 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $40 • Part-time carer (four months): $395 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Muhammad
