Makati
I live with cerebral palsy. My occupational therapist at the Makati Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,150. My current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 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 $1,150 goes: โ€ข cochlear implant processor upgrade: $1,050 โ€ข Fitting and training sessions: $45 โ€ข Delivery and set-up: $15 โ€ข First-year servicing plan: $40 Thank you so much. - Noel
