A stair-climbing aid for Antonio: help Antonio move freely
Help Antonio get a stair-climbing aid so He can join the school sports day.
🇪🇸 Spain1,184 views
Antonio lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at the Móstoles Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $6,700.
His current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment Antonio could join the school sports day. 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 $6,700 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $6,250
• Fitting and training sessions: $135
• Delivery and set-up: $115
• First-year servicing plan: $200
Thank you for reading my story.

Thinking of you and your family, Adrián. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Rosario.
I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Ann Arbor.
Hang in there, Adrián. This could happen to any of us. Don't give up.
Sending good thoughts. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We're a small family in Adama but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Móstoles.
Hang in there, Adrián. This could happen to any of us. All the best.
