Maryna needs a specialist standing frame - help us make it happen
Maryna needs a specialist standing frame that the health system won't fund; the cost is $1,700.
🇷🇺 Russia1,056 views
Maryna lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Kazan Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,700.
Her current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 10 weeks.
With the right equipment Maryna could go to school independently. 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 $1,700 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $35
• Fitting and training sessions: $40
• specialist standing frame: $1,625
Thanks for reading all this.
