Independence for Eka: adapted tricycle

An adapted tricycle would give Eka independence - we're $1,000 away.

Eka lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at Medan General Hospital has assessed her and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,000. Her current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 8 weeks. With the right equipment Eka could attend work interviews. 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 $1,000 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $20 • Fitting and training sessions: $20 • adapted tricycle: $960 If you're reading this, thank you.

  • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Eka.

    • Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. delivery and set-up comes first ($20) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. It helps to be asked.

  • Sending love, Fajar. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes

    • Keep going. Hope you get there. Put this on a community board in Cairo this morning

      • shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Fayetteville.

        • So sorry you're going through this, Fajar. Hope the doctors have good news. Thinking of Medan.
