Independence for Eduardo: communication tablet with eye tracking
A communication tablet with eye tracking would give Eduardo independence - we're $1,550 away.
🇲🇽 Iztapalapa, Ciudad de México, Mexico2,151 views
I live with cerebral palsy. My occupational therapist at the Iztapalapa Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,550.
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 go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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 $1,550 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $85
• Fitting and training sessions: $80
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $1,385
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless
