Dad has dementia, Mum has heart problems. They live with my sisters family and crave independence before Dads condition worsens.

Auckland

Hi All,

I am trying to raise funds for my parents to be able to afford a bond for a small unit. All money raised will go towards the bond for a new house and any excess funds will go towards the moving costs.

Dad has dementia and Mum has heart problems. Currently living with my sister, husband and two small babies, my parents feel the need to move on and enjoy the time they have together while they can before Dads condition worsens.

Mum and Dad are only in their early 70s and aren't ready to move into a village. Both my sister and I have offered them a place in our homes however they crave independence and just want to enjoy their golden years together - which is totally understandable.

Due to both of us girls having families of our own, we aren't in a position to help out as much as we would like financially. Please help me give my parents the gift of time together while they still have it 🙏

I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
