I'm caring for my father, who's 81. After worsening Parkinson's disease Yiğit can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Yiğit 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. Yiğit worked all of his life as a shopkeeper, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for four months will make a huge difference. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $1,500 goes: • Part-time carer (four months): $1,200 • Medication and prescriptions: $140 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $100 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $60 Every share and every dollar helps. - Yasemin
