Luis needs a specialist standing frame - help us make it happen
Help Luis get a specialist standing frame so He can get to the shops and visit friends.
🇪🇸 Spain5,302 views
I live with cerebral palsy. My occupational therapist at the Girona Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,950.
My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 8 weeks.
With the right equipment I could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $5,950 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $5,500
• Fitting and training sessions: $220
• Delivery and set-up: $50
• First-year servicing plan: $180
I hope life is good to you.

So sorry you're going through this, Luis. Get well soon. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Girona
Best of luck, Luis. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless!
Keep going, Luis. Shared it with a few friends. All the best.
Good luck, Luis. It takes guts to ask. Well done. God bless.
Thinking of you and your family. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Kampala.
