A specialist standing frame for Gustavo: help Gustavo move freely
Help Gustavo get a specialist standing frame so He can speak with the people around him.
🇲🇽 Puebla, Puebla, Mexico1,833 views
Gustavo lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at Puebla 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 $2,050.
His current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment Gustavo could speak with the people around him. 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 $2,050 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $30
• First-year servicing plan: $135
• specialist standing frame: $1,885
Thanks for being kind about this.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Gustavo
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. delivery and set-up comes first ($30) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Let me know if you want more detail.
Praying for you. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
So sorry you're going through this. Hope this works out for you. Love from Radom.
