Moumita needs a communication tablet with eye tracking - help us make it happen
Moumita needs a communication tablet with eye tracking that the health system won't fund; the cost is $1,000.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India1,647 views
I live with multiple sclerosis. My occupational therapist at the Mumbai Rehabilitation Centre has assessed me and recommended a communication tablet with eye tracking. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $1,000.
My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment I could get to the shops and visit friends. 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 $1,000 goes:
• First-year servicing plan: $40
• Delivery and set-up: $25
• communication tablet with eye tracking: $935
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

how is Moumita doing now?
hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We're a small family in Cebu City but we're thinking of you. Take care
Sending good thoughts, Moumita. It takes guts to ask. Well done
You're not alone, Moumita. Shared it with a few friends. God bless.
Take care, Moumita. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Mumbai.
