Home health care for my dad
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Victoria and I’m raising money for my parents. My dad came down with COVID in May which led to a long ICU admission and weeks of inpatient rehabilitation. Due to my dad’s 20 year battle with Parkinson’s disease COVID exacerbated his condition and put him in the final stage of his disease. He no longer can talk, walk, use his hands and unfortunately can not longer eat or drink anything. The only way to save him was to place a feeding tube in his stomach to provide hydration and nutrients. My wonderful mother has been his care taker for the last 10 years and of course is doing the best that she can now-but with his tremendous decline he requires 24 hour care. She was able to hire some one to help a few hours a week, but personal home care is extremely expensive and he requires so much attention. The money raised would go towards hiring a home care team to provide daily medical assistance for my dad. Any donation is greatly appreciated.
