Title:
Needed: used A/E prosth. for charitable oraganization
Text:
August 14-29 myself and several members of LEAP (Life Enhancement
Association for People) are going to Central America to fit prostheses for
some of the people there who have no means of obtaining a prosthesis. Two of
the patients are trans-humeral amputees. Since we will be working on a
limited time frame and with limited resources, we thought that we may be able
to do a socket replacement on a used, but functional prosthesis.
We also are in the need of a 7E7 hip joint, a pneumatic cast saw (for two
weeks only) and a vacuum pump (for two weeks only.)
Donations are tax deductible.
Thank you,
Todd Norton, CP
