Daniel needs a specialist standing frame - help us make it happen
Daniel needs a specialist standing frame that the health system won't fund; the cost is $3,150.
🇲🇽 Irapuato, Guanajuato, Mexico3,300 views
I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at the Irapuato Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $3,150.
My current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment I could go to school independently. 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 $3,150 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $2,900
• Fitting and training sessions: $90
• Delivery and set-up: $50
• First-year servicing plan: $110
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
