Mobility fund: communication tablet with eye tracking for Bernd in Regensburg
A communication tablet with eye tracking would give Bernd independence - we're $4,050 away.

I live with multiple sclerosis. My occupational therapist at the Regensburg Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $4,050.
My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment I could go to school independently. 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 $4,050 goes:
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $3,600
• Fitting and training sessions: $135
• Delivery and set-up: $125
• First-year servicing plan: $190
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Rooting for you, Bernd. I hope things turn around soon. God bless.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Bernd.
Sure. The biggest one is communication tablet with eye tracking, $3,600. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Happy to explain more.
Keep going, Bernd. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My neighbor in Caloocan donated after I showed her your page.
