I'm caring for my mother, who's 77. After worsening Parkinson's disease Violet can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Violet desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Violet worked all of her life as a seamstress, 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. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $1,400 goes: • Medication and prescriptions: $500 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $470 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $430 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
