Mobility fund: prosthetic leg for Iqra in Quetta
Iqra needs a prosthetic leg that the health system won't fund; the cost is $1,050.
🇵🇰 Pakistan2,294 views
Iqra lives with cerebral palsy. The occupational therapist at Quetta General Hospital has assessed her and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,050.
Her current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 12 weeks.
With the right equipment Iqra 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $1,050 goes:
• prosthetic leg: $950
• Fitting and training sessions: $45
• Delivery and set-up: $25
• First-year servicing plan: $30

Thinking of you. Hope this works out for you. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Ottawa.
Sending good thoughts, Fahad. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Jakarta
Thinking of you and your family. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Newcastle.
hope the doctors have good news. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out.
keep going. Looking forward to the next update. Love from Reading
