I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at the Bristol Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $8,500.
My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 7 weeks.
With the right equipment I could join the school sports day. 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $8,500 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $210
• Fitting and training sessions: $270
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $8,020
Thanks for being kind about this.

you're not alone. Hope this works out for you. I hope September is when things finally get easier.
Good luck, Jordan. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update.
sending good thoughts, Jordan. Shared it with a few friends
Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Ikeja donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Bristol.
Hang in there, Jordan. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from San Jose.
