Mobility fund: specialist standing frame for Wiktoria in Warsaw
Wiktoria needs a specialist standing frame that the health system will not fund; the cost is $1,850.
🇵🇱 Poland2,555 views
Wiktoria lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Warsaw 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 13 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment Wiktoria 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.
Funds go toward the equipment, delivery, fitting and a year of servicing.
Where the $1,850 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $60
• specialist standing frame: $1,650
• Fitting and training sessions: $140
With deep gratitude,
Paulina

Wishing you peace. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Braunschweig so I could bring a meal. God bless!
You're not alone, Paulina. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Hồ Chí Minh City.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Wiktoria?
Thank you. If you're in Warsaw I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.
Good luck. Get well soon. Love from Multan
Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Casablanca
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Please keep us posted. Love from Los Angeles.
Thanks for sharing this, Paulina. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
