A communication tablet with eye tracking for Peter: help me move freely
A communication tablet with eye tracking would give Peter independence - we're $1,000 away.

I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at Kinondoni General Hospital 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 $1,000.
My current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 3 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 $1,000 goes:
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $940
• Fitting and training sessions: $30
• First-year servicing plan: $30
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Best of luck, Peter. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
