My sister, Subhashini, is 48 years old and has been severely disabled since birth. She has never been able to walk independently. Throughout her life, she could only take a few assisted steps, but now her condition has worsened to the point where she can barely move even with support.

She is completely dependent on others for all daily activities, including bathing, dressing, washing, sitting, and moving from one place to another. As she is a woman, we must employ a female caregiver to assist with her personal needs. Unfortunately, due to the increasing cost of living, it has become extremely difficult to continue paying a caregiver's salary. Caregivers often leave for better-paying jobs, leaving our family in a desperate situation.

Since childhood, my parents consulted numerous doctors hoping for treatment, but they were informed that her neurological condition could not be cured. She has an underdeveloped brain and lifelong neurological disabilities. My father, who cared for her for many years, passed away three years ago. My mother is now 75 years old and suffers from severe sciatica, largely caused by decades of lifting and caring for my sister. Despite her own health problems, she continues to help as much as she can.

I am now the sole financial provider for our family. I support my wife and three children while also caring for my elderly mother, my disabled sister, and the caregiver. Every household expense, including food, medicines, and daily necessities, depends entirely on my income. Because of my caregiving responsibilities, I cannot work additional hours or night shifts to increase my earnings.

My greatest concern is ensuring that my sister and mother continue to receive proper care throughout their lives. Therefore, I hope to establish a lifetime fund that will help cover:

Monthly caregiver salary.
Medical consultations, medicines, and regular health checkups.
Weekly physiotherapy sessions to improve mobility and comfort.
Mobility aids and assistive equipment, such as an advanced walking aid or, if funding permits, a robotic lower-limb exoskeleton.
Occasional outings and recreational activities to improve my sister's mental well-being and quality of life.
Essential support for my elderly mother's medical needs.

This fund would provide long-term security and dignity for my sister, ensuring that she continues to receive proper care even as our family's circumstances become more challenging.

I sincerely request your support in helping us create this lifetime fund. I am willing to provide medical records, photographs, videos, or any other proof required to verify our situation.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story. Sharing it has given me hope, as I rarely have the opportunity to explain our family's struggles. Your kindness and support would make a lasting difference in my sister's life.
