A pair of hearing aids for Myra: help Myra move freely

A pair of hearing aids would give Myra independence - we're $950 away.

Myra lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at the Dwarka Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $950. Her current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 12 weeks. With the right equipment Myra could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $950 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $15 • pair of hearing aids: $910 • First-year servicing plan: $25 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Karan

  • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Myra.

    • Karan AwasthiOwnerAnswer

      Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. delivery and set-up comes first ($15) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Ask me anything else.

  • Praying for you, Karan. Your post was clear and honest

    • Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 21 people at work. God bless.

      • Is there anything that isn't money that would help Myra?

        • Karan AwasthiOwnerAnswer

          Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about delivery and set-up, advice is welcome too. Thanks, that means a lot.

      • Good luck, Karan. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.

        • Wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Dwarka!

          • Best of luck, Karan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Mumbai.

            • Thinking of you. Looking forward to the next update. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
