Ciudad de México
Mónica lives with a spinal cord injury. The occupational therapist at the Ciudad de México Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,850. Her current equipment is 8 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 8 weeks. With the right equipment Mónica 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 $1,850 goes: • Fitting and training sessions: $60 • First-year servicing plan: $95 • specialist standing frame: $1,695 Thank you so much. - Alejandra
