Mobility fund: cochlear implant processor upgrade for Anjana in Thane
Anjana needs a cochlear implant processor upgrade that the health system will not fund; the cost is $450.
🇮🇳 Thane, Maharashtra, India1,044 views
I live with a spinal cord injury. My occupational therapist at the Thane Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $450.
My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 8 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 $450 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $50
• cochlear implant processor upgrade: $340
• Fitting and training sessions: $60
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Thane.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Anjana
Sure. The biggest one is first-year servicing plan, $50. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks, that means a lot.
Praying for you, Anjana. Hope the doctors have good news. Blessings!
Hope it all works out. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Multan this morning. Blessings.
