Columbus
I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at Columbus General Hospital has assessed me and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $750. My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 weeks. With the right equipment I could join the school sports day. 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 $750 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $160 • First-year servicing plan: $320 • Fitting and training sessions: $270 With deep gratitude, Everly

    So sorry you're going through this. Shared it with a few friends. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Columbus.

    • Praying for you, Everly. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Likoni donated after I showed her your page. Love from Likoni.

      • Good luck, Everly. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care
