Mobility fund: cochlear implant processor upgrade for Madhu in Kolkata
Help Madhu get a cochlear implant processor upgrade so She can join the school sports day.
🇮🇳 India739 views
I live with muscular dystrophy. My occupational therapist at the Kolkata 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 $1,050.
My current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 weeks.
With the right equipment I could join the school sports day. 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 $1,050 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $30
• Fitting and training sessions: $35
• cochlear implant processor upgrade: $985
I hope life is good to you.
