Rafi K's situation im trying to help him hire a caregiver-nurse service that can go to his house and help him take care of his mom, and I started this fundraiser to help with that.
For the past five years, Rafi has been the full-time caregiver for his mother, who is living with dementia, Rafi has been taking care of everything, like making sure she gets clean, has supplies diapers, food. clothes, cleaning supplies.
she doesnt remember how to speak english anymore, just her home language she grew up speaking. His Wife cannot help since his mom doesnt know who she is and gets angry with her.
He recently had to spend more than $13,000 to bury his father. at the same time, his job has cut his hours to less than part-time. because he works from home and needs to stay with his mother 24/7. getting a different job is not an option.
Doing all of this on his own and he needs a professional to come over, to clean and everything he is having to do by himeself. The money raised will help him recover the money he has lost over the years and and to help him hire a caregiver to come over everyday, instead of twice a week just to give her a bath.
he is stressed all day long and will not let anyone visit because his mom will freak out and scream at everyone. so he cant leave and no one can come over.
he was taking care of his father by himself as well but he died 1-2 years ago. now he has sold 2 cars to get money in the past and bought himself a cheaper car since he cant get out much to do anything other then buying groceries.
caregiving services all cost between 40-55$ an hour and even if he got someone at 40$ at 3 hours a day, 3 days a week. that is 1,000$ in 3 weeks. he needs someone 5 days a week and over 3 hours.
obviously any amount would help him but i want him to be able to get a job with more hours, not stuck at home 24/7. had to update this description as the AI made it sound dramatic and fake. I will upload photos of him at some point if i can keep him from finding out about what i am doing. he would refuse this if he knew.
