I'm caring for my mother, who's 89. After worsening Parkinson's disease Yanti can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Yanti desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Yanti worked all of her life as a schoolteacher, 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 $700 goes: • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $65 • Part-time carer (six months): $540 • Medication and prescriptions: $95 Every share and every dollar helps.

  • Good luck, Zahra. Shared this with my family. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care.

    • This could happen to any of us. After 13 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything

      • best of luck, Zahra. Get well soon

        • Praying for you, Zahra. Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
