As a physiotherapist deeply rooted in his community, Jerome encounters patients like Mama Dotto, a former teacher who, post-stroke, finds herself trapped by incontinence and unable to progress in rehabilitation. With $500, Jerome will procure a three-month supply of adult diapers for fifteen patients, ensuring they receive two per day for ninety days, totaling 2,700 diapers. He'll purchase these wholesale, using any remaining funds for medical gloves and a ledger to track their rehabilitation progress. Locked safely in the physio cupboard, Jerome will personally oversee their distribution, not as a handout, but as a crucial part of their treatment plan. This initiative will help patients move from shame and stagnation to mobility and self-worth, proving that dignity is the first step toward recovery.
