ASSISTANCE NEEDED : WELFARE AID, MOTORISED WHEEL CHAIR AND JOB
NATURE OF THE CASE
Born in 1975. Wheelchair bound since 8 years old. Both legs are not functional after an accidental fall. Initially only the left leg was affected. But later the other leg was also affected after he underwent a lumber puncture procedure.
He is not able to stand long carrying his body weight even though he tries with the crutches. He tried working with Asia Community Services. But they were forced to terminate him since he could not stand still very long doing an assigned job.
He is eager to help his mother doing small business around his flat. He needs a motorized wheelchair so that he can move around with it.
He is also unemployed and a dependent on his family. He doesn’t receive any aid from the Welfare department.
We have visited him and interviewed the family. A letter has been written to the Welfare Department for financial help and waiting for reply. Looking for donors to supply the motorized wheel chair.
