I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at Nakuru General Hospital has assessed me and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,200. My current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 7 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $1,200 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $35 • Delivery and set-up: $15 • prosthetic leg: $1,150 Thanks for reading all this.
