Independence for Ayaan: prosthetic leg

Ayaan needs a prosthetic leg that the health system won't fund; the cost is $900.

Ayaan lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Pune Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $900. His current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment Ayaan could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $900 goes: • prosthetic leg: $810 • Fitting and training sessions: $25 • Delivery and set-up: $15 • First-year servicing plan: $50 With deep gratitude, Ashok
