Mobility fund: stair-climbing aid for Hudson in San Diego

A stair-climbing aid would give Hudson independence - we're $7,300 away.

San Diego
I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at San Diego General Hospital has assessed me and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $7,300. My current equipment is 15 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 10 weeks. With the right equipment I could go to school independently. 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 $7,300 goes: • stair-climbing aid: $6,750 • Fitting and training sessions: $195 • Delivery and set-up: $90 • First-year servicing plan: $265 Thanks for being kind about this. - Hudson

    Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in Heliopolis this morning. Thinking of San Diego.

    • An Thắng Ngo

      Praying for you, Hudson. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. It's not much but it's yours.

        Wishing you peace, Hudson. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side.

          So sorry you're going through this, Hudson. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected

            hope the doctors have good news. My neighbor in London donated after I showed her your page. All the best.
