I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at the Busan Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $4,600.
My current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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 $4,600 goes:
• braille note-taker: $4,250
• First-year servicing plan: $210
• Fitting and training sessions: $140
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Sending love. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
Take care, Ha-eun. Wishing Ha-eun a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
