Text:

I am pleased to post this message to the OANDP List for Christina Skoski, M.D.

The first web site dedicated specifically to the high pelvic level
amputees, Hemipelvectomy and Hip-Disarticulation, is now on-line at:

                               WWW.HPHDHELP.ORG

The purpose of this site to provide information, education, peer support,
and communication to amputees with this relatively rare level of
amputation. The site contains comprehensive information on the following
subjects and more:

Walking
Prosthetics
Options to Prosthetics
Physical Fitness
Helpful Hints
Links to related sites

An initial support network of 27 Hemipelvectomy and Hipdisarticulation
amputees is listed with e-mail contact addresses. This is just a start. I
hope you find the site interesting and helpful.

Christina
