Help me fund for a Cochlear implant!

$9,431 of $62,500 goal
Given by 89 generous donors in around 12 months

I'm in need of a cochlear implant, I'm losing my hearing given 6 months

Manawatu / Whanganui

**Update 29/11***

the government has finally given me the chance to hear!

I have been approval of funds to get the Cochlear implant, and so far its in process of hearing new sounds and so forth,

but unfortunately the government won't fund for equipment,

so I still need funds to help with getting batteries, replacements, and more.

-----------------------------------------

I'm hoping to fund raise as much as possible for me to be able to get a cochlear implant so i don't lose my hearing!

The cochlear implant alone cost up to $62,500, privately,

As a person who is hearing impaired I am only on the tip of the iceberg in terms of understanding what Danielle would face if she lost her hearing.
