Teguh wants to stay at home - help fund six months of care
Help Teguh stay in his own home with six months of part-time care.
🇮🇩 Indonesia853 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 89. After a stroke last October Teguh can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Teguh desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Teguh worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 3 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 $550 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $330
• Medication and prescriptions: $110
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $50
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $60
Glad we found this place.
