A specialist standing frame for Javeria: help me move freely
Javeria needs a specialist standing frame that the health system won't fund; the cost is $650.

I live with multiple sclerosis. My occupational therapist at the Peshawar Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $650.
My current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 weeks.
With the right equipment I could speak with the people around her. 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 $650 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $620
• Delivery and set-up: $20
• First-year servicing plan: $10
Thanks for reading all this.

Praying for you, Javeria. Your post was clear and honest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Jakarta.
Take care, Javeria. Hope the doctors have good news. Thinking of Peshawar.
