An adapted tricycle for Dinesh: help Dinesh move freely
An adapted tricycle would give Dinesh independence - we're $100 away.

Dinesh lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Mangaluru Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $100.
His current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 7 weeks.
With the right equipment Dinesh could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $100 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $60
• Fitting and training sessions: $15
• Delivery and set-up: $25
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Hope it all works out, Mukesh. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest.
Wishing you peace. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
Sending good thoughts. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Love from San Jose.
Best of luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. After 23 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
Thinking of you and your family. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Stuttgart.
