Mobility fund: adapted tricycle for Camila in Seville
An adapted tricycle would give Camila independence - we are $4,200 away.
🇪🇸 Andalusia, Spain933 views
Camila lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the Seville Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $4,200.
Her current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment Camila 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $4,200 goes:
• adapted tricycle: $3,650
• Fitting and training sessions: $250
• Delivery and set-up: $80
• First-year servicing plan: $220
Thanks for reading all this.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Camila.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. adapted tricycle comes first ($3,650) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Happy to explain more.
hope it all works out. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. It's not much but it's yours. All the best.
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Seville
Thank you. If you're in Seville I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.
Sending good thoughts. This could happen to any of us. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Seville
Hope it all works out, Citlali. I hope things turn around soon.
Thinking of you and your family. Shared it with a few friends. Love from Mumbai.
Take care. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Thinking of Seville
Keep going, Citlali. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Dallas so I could bring a meal. All the best
look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Thanks for sharing this, Citlali. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Stay strong. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this. Get well soon. Greetings from Pune.
Looking forward to the next update. Please keep us posted. Greetings from San Diego.
