Independence for Mythili: specialist standing frame
A specialist standing frame would give Mythili independence - we're $450 away.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India174 views
I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at the Pune Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $450.
My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 weeks.
With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. It would change my everyday life and my ability to work from home.
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 $450 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $310
• Fitting and training sessions: $40
• Delivery and set-up: $15
• First-year servicing plan: $85
I hope life is good to you.
