I'm caring for me, who's 92. After a diagnosis of dementia Yash can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Yash desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Yash worked all of his life as a seamstress, 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 $400 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $50
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $35
• Part-time carer (six months): $315
Glad we found this place.

Sending good thoughts. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Rio de Janeiro.
keep going. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. All the best.
Stay strong, Yash. Wishing Yash a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
