Tomás needs a specialist standing frame - help us make it happen
A specialist standing frame would give Tomás independence - we're $5,200 away.

I live with profound hearing loss. My occupational therapist at the Granada Mobility Clinic has assessed me and recommended a specialist standing frame. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $5,200.
My current equipment is 12 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined me to home for 10 weeks.
With the right equipment I could attend work interviews. 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 $5,200 goes:
• specialist standing frame: $5,000
• First-year servicing plan: $135
• Delivery and set-up: $65
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Surat so I could bring a meal. God bless.
Thinking of you and your family. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We're a small family in Bengaluru but we're thinking of you. Blessings
