Care giver needed for elderly Mataji

Care Givers for Padyavali Devi Dasi (ACBSP)

Hare Krishna! PAMHO AGTSP Padyavali Devi Dasi, is a long time fully dedicated senior disciple of Srila Prabhupada who has been serving his ISKCON mission, mostly in Canada, since the mid 70's. Her health is and has been poor for some time now and we are looking for qualified female (preferred) care givers to help care for her. 

 M. Padyavali has been in the local hospital (Burnaby General) since November 7th, when she became unwell and was hallucinating. Since that time the doctors have been working on stabilizing her medications, particularly the ones for Parkinson's Disease, which can cause hallucinations if not given in the right dosages. She is much better and will be ready for discharge shortly. 

We have been looking for appropriate care for M. Padyavali in her own home but the reality has been that no matter how hard we try, the necessary funding is not in place nor have we been successful in finding sufficient care givers. We are still advertising for female devotee care givers so that she can return to her own home. However, she cannot return without appropriate care in place, nor can any "potential" Government funding be available until we have the appropriate care givers in place. 

M. Padyavali was advised by the doctors involved in her discharge, that if we cannot arrange for the necessary funds and care givers she will have to stay in a long-term care Gov't run facility. She is already on the list for a bed. This is not an appropriate environment for any devotee. Regarding care funding, we are trying different avenues for some Gov't funding which may or not be available and if any will be in a limited amount.
