I live with an amputation below the knee. My occupational therapist at the Yogyakarta Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $800. My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment I could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $800 goes: • pair of hearing aids: $730 • Delivery and set-up: $30 • First-year servicing plan: $40 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
