A communication tablet with eye tracking for Oksana: help me move freely

A communication tablet with eye tracking would give Oksana independence - we're $100 away.

I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at the Kyiv 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 $100. My current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 3 weeks. With the right equipment I could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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 $100 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $15 • First-year servicing plan: $35 • Fitting and training sessions: $50 Thanks for being kind about this.

    Helped when no one else could

    Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.

    Hope things get better soon, Oksana. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.

    • Galina Svetlana Belov

      I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Jakarta!

        Good luck, Oksana. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

        • Pavel Rashed Chatterjee

          So sorry you're going through this, Oksana. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.

          • Mónica D. González

            Praying for you, Oksana. Hope you get there. God bless.
