Rocío lives with muscular dystrophy. The occupational therapist at Barcelona General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a pair of hearing aids. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,250. Her current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 12 weeks. With the right equipment Rocío could go to school independently. 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 $5,250 goes: • pair of hearing aids: $5,000 • Fitting and training sessions: $85 • Delivery and set-up: $35 • First-year servicing plan: $130 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Nuria

    Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Seoul.

    • Take care, Nuria. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Put this on a community board in Bekasi this morning. Greetings from Bekasi.

      • Wishing Rocío a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out.

        • Wishing Rocío a smooth procedure and a full recovery. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Barcelona
