Ciudad de México

I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at Ciudad de México General Hospital has assessed me and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $700. 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 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $700 goes: • Fitting and training sessions: $80 • First-year servicing plan: $105 • adapted tricycle: $515 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Ignacio
