Bruno lives with profound hearing loss. The occupational therapist at the Caruaru Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,350.
His current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 7 weeks.
With the right equipment Bruno 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 $1,350 goes:
• adapted tricycle: $1,250
• Delivery and set-up: $60
• First-year servicing plan: $40
Glad we found this place.

can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Caruaru
Thank you. If you're in Caruaru I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. I'll keep the page updated.
Rooting for you, Miguel. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick
Rooting for you, Miguel. Wishing Bruno a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't be hard on yourself for asking!
Hope things get better soon, Miguel. Hope this works out for you. Take care.
Hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Surrey so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Caruaru.
Looking forward to the next update. Put this on a community board in Sylhet this morning. Take care.
