A pair of hearing aids for Hendra: help me move freely

A pair of hearing aids would give Hendra independence - we're $900 away.

Depok
I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at the Depok Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $900. My current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 10 weeks. With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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 $900 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $10 • Fitting and training sessions: $40 • pair of hearing aids: $850 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Hendra
