Brigitte lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Amiens Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $4,850.
Her current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 8 weeks.
With the right equipment Brigitte could attend work interviews. 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $4,850 goes:
• cochlear implant processor upgrade: $4,500
• First-year servicing plan: $200
• Fitting and training sessions: $150
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My neighbor in Yekaterinburg donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Yekaterinburg
Best of luck, Valentin. Wishing Brigitte a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Quezon City
