Independence for Lior: braille note-taker
Lior needs a braille note-taker that the health system will not fund; the cost is $2,850.
🇮🇱 Tel Aviv, Tel Aviv, Israel1,455 views
Lior lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at Tel Aviv General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,850.
His current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 7 weeks.
With the right equipment Lior could join the school sports day. 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 $2,850 goes:
• braille note-taker: $2,300
• Fitting and training sessions: $190
• Delivery and set-up: $120
• First-year servicing plan: $240
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Tel Aviv.
Thank you. If you're in Tel Aviv I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
praying for you. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Sukkur donated after I showed her your page. Take care.
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Los Angeles donated after I showed her your page. God bless
Wishing you peace, Amir. I hope things turn around soon. God bless.
Praying for you, Amir. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless
Wishing you peace. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
