Jae-hyun lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Suwon Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,700. His current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 6 weeks. With the right equipment Jae-hyun 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. Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing. Where the $5,700 goes: • communication tablet with eye tracking: $5,250 • Fitting and training sessions: $105 • Delivery and set-up: $95 • First-year servicing plan: $250 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Ha-joon
