Teresa lives with muscular dystrophy. The occupational therapist at the Guadalajara Rehabilitation Centre has assessed her and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $2,050. Her current equipment is 11 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 12 weeks. With the right equipment Teresa 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 $2,050 goes: • First-year servicing plan: $90 • stair-climbing aid: $1,900 • Fitting and training sessions: $60 Glad we found this place. - Graciela
