A braille note-taker for Liliana: help me move freely
Liliana needs a braille note-taker that the health system won't fund; the cost is $4,950.

I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at the Shreveport Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $4,950.
My current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment I could go to school independently. It would change my everyday life and my ability to work from home.
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 $4,950 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $290
• braille note-taker: $4,450
• Delivery and set-up: $210
With deep gratitude,
Liliana

Sending love, Liliana. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Jeddah but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
