Independence for Marilyn: cochlear implant processor upgrade

Marilyn lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at London General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $7,250. Her current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment Marilyn could attend work interviews. 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 $7,250 goes: • cochlear implant processor upgrade: $6,750 • Fitting and training sessions: $220 • Delivery and set-up: $100 • First-year servicing plan: $180 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
