Yoga wants to stay at home - help fund three months of care
Help Yoga stay in his own home with three months of part-time care.
🇮🇩 Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia450 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 78. After a fall and hip fracture Yoga can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Yoga 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.
Yoga worked all of his life as a farmer, 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.
The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices.
Where the $750 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $650
• Medication and prescriptions: $85
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $15
Thank you for reading my story.

gave what I could, wish it was more. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
Good luck, Kirana. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Arlington but we're thinking of you.
praying for you, Kirana. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
thanks for sharing this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from La Plata.
You're not alone, Kirana. Shared it with a few friends.
Take care. Get well soon. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.
Wishing you the best. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Magelang
So sorry you're going through this, Kirana. Your post was clear and honest. Please keep us posted. All the best.
