I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at Hawassa General Hospital has assessed me and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $855.
My current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 weeks.
With the right equipment I could speak with the people around her. 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 $855 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $820
• First-year servicing plan: $30
• Delivery and set-up: $5
Thanks for reading all this.

Praying for you, Tsion. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Haifa
Rooting for you, Tsion. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care
