Mobility fund: stair-climbing aid for Ezra in Sydney
Help Ezra get a stair-climbing aid so He can join the school sports day.
🇦🇺 Sydney, New South Wales, Australia4,466 views
Ezra lives with muscular dystrophy. The occupational therapist at Sydney General Hospital has assessed him and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,400.
His current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 8 weeks.
With the right equipment Ezra 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.
I'll pay the supplier directly from the funds, and I'll post a photo once the equipment is delivered.
Where the $5,400 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $4,750
• Fitting and training sessions: $300
• Delivery and set-up: $200
• First-year servicing plan: $150
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Stay strong. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Calamba donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Calamba.
praying for you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Sydney.
hope the doctors have good news. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Olinda.
Hope things get better soon, Henry. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best
Stay strong, Henry. Get well soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care
Rooting for you, Henry. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. All the best
