Vijay needs a stair-climbing aid - help us make it happen

Vijay needs a stair-climbing aid that the health system won't fund; the cost is $350.

Vijay lives with a rare neuromuscular condition. The occupational therapist at the Dwarka Rehabilitation Centre has assessed him and recommended a stair-climbing aid. The public scheme doesn't cover it, and the quote from the supplier is $350. His current equipment is 14 years old and keeps breaking, which has confined him to home for 8 weeks. With the right equipment Vijay could attend work interviews. 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 $350 goes: • stair-climbing aid: $290 • Fitting and training sessions: $20 • Delivery and set-up: $25 • First-year servicing plan: $15 Every share and every dollar helps.

    Thanks for sharing this. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.
