Khalid needs an adapted tricycle - help us make it happen
An adapted tricycle would give Khalid independence - we're $950 away.
🇵🇰 Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan615 views
I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at the Lahore Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $950.
My current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 8 weeks.
With the right equipment I could speak with the people around him. 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 $950 goes:
• adapted tricycle: $870
• Fitting and training sessions: $15
• Delivery and set-up: $20
• First-year servicing plan: $45
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Best of luck. 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. Take care.

I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Hope things get better soon, Khalid. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Awka.
