Irfan lives with profound hearing loss. The occupational therapist at the Yogyakarta Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $700. His current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 3 weeks. With the right equipment Irfan could go to school independently. 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 $700 goes: • specialist standing frame: $560 • Fitting and training sessions: $45 • Delivery and set-up: $30 • First-year servicing plan: $65 I hope life is good to you. - Bambang

  • shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Yogyakarta.

    • Stay strong, Bambang. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Indore

        Praying for you, Bambang. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.

        • sending good thoughts, Bambang. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Edmonton.
