Mobility fund: adapted tricycle for Laura in San Antonio
An adapted tricycle would give Laura independence - we're $3,300 away.
🇺🇸 San Antonio, Texas, United States2,037 views
Laura lives with profound hearing loss. The occupational therapist at the San Antonio Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended an adapted tricycle. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $3,300.
Her current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 12 weeks.
With the right equipment Laura 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 $3,300 goes:
• Fitting and training sessions: $280
• Delivery and set-up: $130
• adapted tricycle: $2,890
Thank you so much.

Wishing you peace. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts, Rocío. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best.
hope things get better soon, Rocío. Hope the doctors have good news. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
Stay strong. Get well soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
