🇹🇷 Türkiye878 views
I live with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. My occupational therapist at the Kadıköy 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 $650.
My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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 $650 goes:
• braille note-taker: $510
• Fitting and training sessions: $55
• Delivery and set-up: $30
• First-year servicing plan: $55
Every share and every dollar helps.

sending strength. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Wishing you peace, Hatice. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
is there anything that isn't money that would help Hatice?
Thank you. If you're in Kadıköy I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Fair thing to want to know.
Thanks for sharing this, Hatice. Hope this works out for you. Take care.
Hope it all works out, Hatice. I hope things turn around soon. God bless.
hope the doctors have good news. I hope July is when things finally get easier. God bless.
Best of luck, Hatice. 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. Thinking of Kadıköy.
