Yetunde wants to stay at home - help fund three months of care
Help Yetunde stay in her own home with three months of part-time care.
Anywhere in the world626 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 81. After the death of her spouse Yetunde can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Yetunde 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.
Yetunde worked all of her life as a factory worker, and raised 2 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 $650 goes:
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $55
• Medication and prescriptions: $55
• Part-time carer (three months): $540
Glad we found this place.
