A prosthetic leg for Nida: help me move freely
Nida needs a prosthetic leg that the health system won't fund; the cost is $100.
🇵🇰 Multan, Punjab, Pakistan267 views
I live with an amputation below the knee. My occupational therapist at the Multan Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $100.
My current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 6 weeks.
With the right equipment I could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $100 goes:
• Fitting and training sessions: $40
• First-year servicing plan: $35
• Delivery and set-up: $25
Thanks for reading all this.
