I'm caring for my father, who's 96. After a fall and hip fracture Surafel can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Surafel 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. Surafel worked all of his life as a nurse, and raised 2 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 $400 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $230 • Medication and prescriptions: $55 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $30 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $85 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
