Uri wants to stay at home - help fund six months of care
Help Uri stay in his own home with six months of part-time care.
🇮🇱 Beersheba, Southern, Israel2,466 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 93. After a diagnosis of dementia Uri can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Uri desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Uri worked all of his life as a shopkeeper, 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.
Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies.
Where the $4,700 goes:
• Part-time carer (six months): $3,350
• Medication and prescriptions: $650
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $310
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $390
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Keep going, Oren. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Augsburg.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Uri.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. part-time carer (six months) comes first ($3,350) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. It helps to be asked.
sending good thoughts, Oren. Wishing Uri a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Take care.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Uri?
Thank you. If you're in Beersheba I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.
Hang in there, Oren. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Greetings from Laredo.
How is Uri doing now?
Praying for you, Oren. Hope you get there
sending love. Hope you get there. Don't give up.
Wishing you peace. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Beersheba.
thanks for sharing this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope July is when things finally get easier. Take care.
sending love. Get well soon. Sent it to 19 people at work. All the best.
Wishing you the best, Oren. Looking forward to the next update. All the best.
Wishing you the best, Oren. Wishing Uri a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Blessings.
Best of luck, Oren. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My neighbor in Durgapur donated after I showed her your page.
