A braille note-taker for Isaac: help Isaac move freely

Tema
Isaac lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at the Tema Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $650. His current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 8 weeks. With the right equipment Isaac could join the school sports day. It would change everyday life for the whole family. We've applied to two charities already and received small contributions; this campaign covers the rest. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $650 goes: β€’ braille note-taker: $590 β€’ Fitting and training sessions: $35 β€’ Delivery and set-up: $25 With deep gratitude, Kobina

  • Thinking of you, Kobina. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Thinking of Tema

    • Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Tema.

      • Sending strength. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I have a 6 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.

        • hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 31 people at work.
