Mobility fund: cochlear implant processor upgrade for Denise in Corpus Christi

Denise needs a cochlear implant processor upgrade that the health system won't fund; the cost is $6,850.

Denise lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at the Corpus Christi Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $6,850. Her current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 6 weeks. With the right equipment Denise could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $6,850 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $155 • Fitting and training sessions: $175 • cochlear implant processor upgrade: $6,520 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

    Take care. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.

    • Ethan W. PruittQuestion

      is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Denise

      • Jayden B. GordonOwnerAnswer

        First-year servicing plan is $155 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. It helps to be asked.

      hope things get better soon, Jayden. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Londrina donated after I showed her your page.

        Best of luck, Jayden. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Nairobi.
