Mobility fund: cochlear implant processor upgrade for Zoya in Peshawar
Zoya needs a cochlear implant processor upgrade that the health system won't fund; the cost is $1,000.
🇵🇰 Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan598 views
Zoya lives with muscular dystrophy. The occupational therapist at the Peshawar Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,000.
Her current equipment is 9 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 4 weeks.
With the right equipment Zoya could get to the shops and visit friends. It would change everyday life for the whole family.
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 $1,000 goes:
• cochlear implant processor upgrade: $930
• Fitting and training sessions: $30
• Delivery and set-up: $20
• First-year servicing plan: $20
I hope life is good to you.

Thinking of you and your family, Usman. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Peshawar
Take care, Usman. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Peshawar.
