Gopal lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at Lalitpur General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $650. His current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 10 weeks. With the right equipment Gopal could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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 $650 goes: • specialist standing frame: $540 • Fitting and training sessions: $35 • Delivery and set-up: $10 • First-year servicing plan: $65 Thanks for reading all this.
