Independence for Leonardo: communication tablet with eye tracking

A communication tablet with eye tracking would give Leonardo independence - we're $2,300 away.

Leonardo lives with muscular dystrophy. The occupational therapist at Córdoba General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,300. His current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 7 weeks. With the right equipment Leonardo could get to the shops and visit friends. 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $2,300 goes: • Fitting and training sessions: $60 • communication tablet with eye tracking: $2,200 • Delivery and set-up: $40 If you're reading this, thank you. - Regina

        Praying for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
