I live with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. My occupational therapist at Giza General Hospital has assessed me and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,300. My current equipment is 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment I could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $1,300 goes: • stair-climbing aid: $1,200 • Fitting and training sessions: $25 • Delivery and set-up: $20 • First-year servicing plan: $55 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

      Sending good thoughts, Huda. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
