Roberto lives with muscular dystrophy. The occupational therapist at the Madrid Mobility Clinic has assessed him and recommended a cochlear implant processor upgrade. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $600. His current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 7 weeks. With the right equipment Roberto could go to school independently. 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 $600 goes: • Delivery and set-up: $110 • Fitting and training sessions: $280 • First-year servicing plan: $210 With deep gratitude, Juan
