Independence for Landon: stair-climbing aid
A stair-climbing aid would give Landon independence - we're $4,700 away.
🇺🇸 San Diego, California, United States339 views
Landon lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the San Diego Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $4,700.
His current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment Landon could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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 $4,700 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $4,250
• Delivery and set-up: $185
• Fitting and training sessions: $265
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
