Independence for Kamrul: pair of hearing aids
Kamrul needs a pair of hearing aids that the health system will not fund; the cost is $400.

I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at the Cox's Bazar Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $400.
My current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment I could speak with the people around him. 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 $400 goes:
• pair of hearing aids: $300
• Fitting and training sessions: $50
• Delivery and set-up: $25
• First-year servicing plan: $25
Every share and every dollar helps.

Praying for you, Kamrul. Gave what I could, wish it was more. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Kamrul
Pair of hearing aids is $300 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Ask me anything else.
Rooting for you, Kamrul. Get well soon. After 11 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
it takes guts to ask. Well done. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
