Diệp lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Chattanooga Mobility Clinic has assessed her and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $7,900. Her current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 10 weeks. With the right equipment Diệp could go outside without waiting for someone to push. 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. I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered. Where the $7,900 goes: • communication tablet with eye tracking: $7,250 • Fitting and training sessions: $310 • Delivery and set-up: $100 • First-year servicing plan: $240 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
