Independence for Shilpa: communication tablet with eye tracking
A communication tablet with eye tracking would give Shilpa independence - we're $100 away.

I live with an amputation below the knee. My occupational therapist at the Mumbai Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $100.
My current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 8 weeks.
With the right equipment I could join the school sports day. 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $100 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $25
• Fitting and training sessions: $35
• Delivery and set-up: $40
I hope life is good to you.

Take care, Shilpa. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
