Mobility fund: prosthetic leg for Rani in Ludhiana
Rani needs a prosthetic leg that the health system won't fund; the cost is $600.
🇮🇳 India1,273 views
Rani lives with low vision from retinitis pigmentosa. The occupational therapist at the Ludhiana Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a prosthetic leg. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $600.
Her current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 3 weeks.
With the right equipment Rani could join the school sports day. 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 $600 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $35
• Delivery and set-up: $30
• prosthetic leg: $535
Thank you so much.

Good luck. Wishing Rani a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.
Hope things get better soon. Hope this works out for you. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Ludhiana.
so sorry you're going through this, Neha. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
