Hello, my father has been battling ALS since august 2019. Only me and my mother he accepts care so PSW. My dad now has lost the use of hand and legs . Me and my mom are having hard time moving him in house and to washroom and shower or anywhere . We have been waiting to figure out how to get help with home modification but after forms and all nothing has happened.
We are in Ontario Canada. We have a power wheelchair from ALS Canada .
Home modification are very expensive as my mom went off work to care for my dad 24/7.
anyone from Canada knows ways to get help from government ?
March of dimes is not easy they ask for 2 quote and applications. During covid 19 we managed to get 1 contractor most contractors when they hear it’s for ALS and March of dimes , they dont show up.
Me and my mom are really exhausted from carrying him up the stairs and outside . We can’t leave him to just stay in his recliner 24/7.
Any advice anyone knows other ways . My father had disability prev to ALS and also he is 74 years old.
thank you for listening to my rant
