Help Georgina get a braille note-taker so She can speak with the people around her.

I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at the Madina 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 $1,150.
My current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment I could speak with the people around her. 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 $1,150 goes:
• braille note-taker: $1,050
• First-year servicing plan: $60
• Delivery and set-up: $40
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Georgina?
Thank you. If you're in Madina I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
you're not alone, Georgina. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Erie but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Erie
Praying for you, Georgina. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless
Keep going, Georgina. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Thinking of Madina
Praying for you, Georgina. Hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Ciudad de México.
Thinking of you. Get well soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Gqeberha.
