Independence for Marek: specialist standing frame
Help Marek get a specialist standing frame so He can speak with the people around him.
🇵🇱 Radom, Masovia, Poland1,841 views
Marek lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at Radom General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $3,050.
His current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 7 weeks.
With the right equipment Marek could speak with the people around him. 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 $3,050 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $2,850
• Fitting and training sessions: $55
• Delivery and set-up: $70
• First-year servicing plan: $75
I hope life is good to you.

thinking of you, Mariusz. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in Pokhara this morning. Take care.
gave what I could, wish it was more. Greetings from Warsaw.
Hope things get better soon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 28 people at work.
Stay strong, Mariusz. This could happen to any of us. Take care.
