Davao City
I live with an amputation below the knee. My occupational therapist at the Davao City Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $800. My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 8 weeks. With the right equipment I could join the school sports day. 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 $800 goes: • cochlear implant processor upgrade: $680 • Fitting and training sessions: $60 • First-year servicing plan: $60 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Jun
