Hadley needs a prosthetic leg - help us make it happen
Hadley needs a prosthetic leg that the health system won't fund; the cost is $7,100.
🇺🇸 Sacramento, California, United States901 views
Hadley lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at Sacramento General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $7,100.
Her current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment Hadley could speak with the people around her. 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 $7,100 goes:
• Fitting and training sessions: $370
• First-year servicing plan: $210
• prosthetic leg: $6,520
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Updates from Elias
Update from Sacramento: I made the first payment toward prosthetic leg. We're at 4% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
