🇨🇦 Canada1,067 views
I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at Québec General Hospital has assessed me and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,150.
My current equipment is 8 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $2,150 goes:
• Delivery and set-up: $95
• cochlear implant processor upgrade: $1,750
• First-year servicing plan: $305
I hope life is good to you.
