I'm caring for my father, who's 83. After a heart attack Siddharth can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Siddharth desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Siddharth worked all of his life as a schoolteacher, and raised 4 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 $900 goes: • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $95 • Part-time carer (six months): $730 • Medication and prescriptions: $75 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • Best of luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Put this on a community board in Newcastle upon Tyne this morning

    • So sorry you're going through this, Sameer. Wishing Siddharth a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.

      • Best of luck, Sameer. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Faisalabad.
