Harper lives with profound hearing loss. The occupational therapist at London General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,200. Her current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 8 weeks. With the right equipment Harper 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $5,200 goes: • prosthetic leg: $4,550 • Fitting and training sessions: $290 • Delivery and set-up: $70 • First-year servicing plan: $290 Thanks for being kind about this. - Lincoln
