A cochlear implant processor upgrade for Joshua: help Joshua move freely

Joshua lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Taguig Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,500. His current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 6 weeks. With the right equipment Joshua could get to the shops and visit friends. 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $1,500 goes: • cochlear implant processor upgrade: $1,400 • Fitting and training sessions: $25 • Delivery and set-up: $10 • First-year servicing plan: $65 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
