An adapted tricycle would give Bagus independence - we're $1,400 away.

Jakarta Selatan
I live with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. My occupational therapist at the Jakarta Selatan Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,400. My current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 weeks. With the right equipment I could speak with the people around him. 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $1,400 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $30 • adapted tricycle: $1,350 • First-year servicing plan: $20 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Bagus

                    Hope you get there. After 13 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings

                    • Stay strong, Bagus. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My husband and I read this together. Blessings

                        • So sorry you're going through this, Bagus. Hope you get there. Love from Lagos.

                          • sending strength, Bagus. Hope this works out for you. After 6 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

                            • It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 4 people at work. Thinking of Jakarta Selatan.
