🇳🇬 Nigeria1,512 views
I live with multiple sclerosis. My occupational therapist at the Epe 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 $400.
My current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment I could speak with the people around him. 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 $400 goes:
• cochlear implant processor upgrade: $310
• Delivery and set-up: $20
• Fitting and training sessions: $70
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
- Festus
