Mobility fund: communication tablet with eye tracking for Daniela in Fortaleza
A communication tablet with eye tracking would give Daniela independence - we're $1,800 away.

I live with a rare neuromuscular condition. My occupational therapist at the Fortaleza 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 $1,800.
My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 12 weeks.
With the right equipment I could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $1,800 goes:
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $1,550
• Fitting and training sessions: $110
• Delivery and set-up: $45
• First-year servicing plan: $95
Thanks for being kind about this.

Rooting for you, Daniela. Looking forward to the next update. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Arusha.
good luck, Daniela. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless!
