Salé
I live with an amputation below the knee. My occupational therapist at the Salé Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,850. My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 7 weeks. With the right equipment I could go to school independently. 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 $1,850 goes: • cochlear implant processor upgrade: $1,700 • Fitting and training sessions: $55 • Delivery and set-up: $30 • First-year servicing plan: $65 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

    Best of luck, Manon. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings

    • Rubina Butt

      Wishing Manon a smooth procedure and a full recovery. After 20 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
