Kamol lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the Bangkok Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,500. His current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 3 weeks. With the right equipment Kamol could speak with the people around him. 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 $1,500 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $55 • communication tablet with eye tracking: $1,350 • Fitting and training sessions: $95 Glad we found this place.
