A specialist standing frame for Eduardo: help Eduardo move freely
Eduardo needs a specialist standing frame that the health system won't fund; the cost is $2,250.

Eduardo lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the Barranquilla Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,250.
His current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment Eduardo 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $2,250 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $2,100
• Fitting and training sessions: $60
• Delivery and set-up: $55
• First-year servicing plan: $35
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

stay strong, Raúl. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Wish I lived closer to Bakersfield so I could bring a meal. God bless!
Keep going, Raúl. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Kota so I could bring a meal. Blessings
