Taslima wants to stay at home - help fund four months of care
Taslima can't afford the care She needs after a fall and hip fracture; we're asking for $450.

I'm caring for me, who's 89. After a fall and hip fracture Taslima can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Taslima desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Taslima worked all of her life as a shopkeeper, and raised 3 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 $450 goes:
• Medication and prescriptions: $50
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $35
• Part-time carer (four months): $365
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
