Tuyết needs a stair-climbing aid - help us make it happen
Tuyết needs a stair-climbing aid that the health system won't fund; the cost is $8,000.
🇺🇸 Orlando, Florida, United States434 views
Tuyết lives with multiple sclerosis. The occupational therapist at the Orlando 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 $8,000.
Her current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined her to home for 5 weeks.
With the right equipment Tuyết could join the school sports day. 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 $8,000 goes:
• stair-climbing aid: $7,250
• Fitting and training sessions: $410
• Delivery and set-up: $135
• First-year servicing plan: $205
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

wishing Tuyết a smooth procedure and a full recovery. All the best.
Wishing you the best. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Liverpool donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
Thinking of you, Nghĩa. Hope the doctors have good news. Blessings.
Sending love, Nghĩa. Shared it with a few friends. Love from Adama.
