Medina
I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at the Medina Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a braille note-taker. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,100. My current equipment is 11 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $2,100 goes: โ€ข Delivery and set-up: $40 โ€ข braille note-taker: $1,950 โ€ข First-year servicing plan: $110 If you're reading this, thank you. - Ali
