Jaipur
I live with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. My occupational therapist at the Jaipur 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 $450. My current equipment is 14 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 $450 goes: • cochlear implant processor upgrade: $340 • Fitting and training sessions: $45 • Delivery and set-up: $20 • First-year servicing plan: $45 I hope life is good to you. - Shilpa
