I live with muscular dystrophy. My occupational therapist at the Chennai Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $150. My current equipment is 10 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 3 weeks. With the right equipment I could join the school sports day. It would change my everyday life and my ability to work from home. 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 $150 goes: • Fitting and training sessions: $55 • First-year servicing plan: $40 • Delivery and set-up: $55 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
