Suresh wants to stay at home - help fund three months of care

I'm caring for my father, who's 79. After worsening Parkinson's disease Suresh can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Suresh 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. Suresh worked all of his life as a schoolteacher, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for three 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: • Part-time carer (three months): $430 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $90 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $30 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Sandeep
