A cochlear implant processor upgrade for Tushar: help Tushar move freely
Tushar needs a cochlear implant processor upgrade that the health system will not fund; the cost is $100.
🇮🇳 Nashik, Maharashtra, India256 views
Tushar lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at Nashik General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $100.
His current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment Tushar could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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 $100 goes:
• Fitting and training sessions: $25
• First-year servicing plan: $45
• Delivery and set-up: $30
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
