Independence for Madelyn: specialist standing frame
Help Madelyn get a specialist standing frame so She can go outside without waiting for someone to push.
🇺🇸 San Diego, California, United States1,717 views
Madelyn lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at the San Diego Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $800.
Her current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 8 weeks.
With the right equipment Madelyn 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $800 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $170
• First-year servicing plan: $380
• Fitting and training sessions: $250
If you're reading this, thank you.

Thinking of you and your family. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. All the best
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Dammam this morning
So sorry you're going through this, Genesis. Hope you get there.
