Independence for Yun-seo: prosthetic leg

A prosthetic leg would give Yun-seo independence - we're $2,150 away.

Yun-seo lives with an amputation below the knee. The occupational therapist at the Incheon Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,150. Her current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 7 weeks. With the right equipment Yun-seo could join the school sports day. 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $2,150 goes: • prosthetic leg: $1,850 • Fitting and training sessions: $120 • Delivery and set-up: $90 • First-year servicing plan: $90 Glad we found this place. - Min-ho

    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Yun-seo.

    • Min-ho Jun-seo JungOwnerAnswer

      Sure. The biggest one is prosthetic leg, $1,850. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Ask me anything else.

  • Sneha Swati Bisht

        Gave what I could, wish it was more. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings
