I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at the Varanasi 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 $450. My current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 4 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $450 goes: • cochlear implant processor upgrade: $330 • Fitting and training sessions: $25 • Delivery and set-up: $25 • First-year servicing plan: $70 Thank you for reading my story. - Siva
