Following are lists of equipment by disease or disability to serve as a guideline for you. We have these broken down in the following categories:

OBVIOUS,  means just that, that they will need the equipment. Often it will be covered by insurance, but that is not always necessarily true.

LIKELY,  means that they will prbably need that item, either now or in the future (depending on severity/progression)

POSSIBLE,  means that with some with that condition progress to the point of needing that item.

ENHANCED, means that they often do without it (and it's probably not covered by insurance), but it would make a POSITIVE difference for them.
