My God -- am I getting as bad as the others?
To the point -- I am receiving tons of positive responses to my referenced
message. And I am certainly pleased that so many of you agree with me. All
but one agreed -- Tony Barr - no surprise there. Let me suggest that all
of you put your message on the ListServ rather than to me personally --
possibly, though doubtful some of those people will get the MESSAGE!
By the way Tony -- you indicated that my background might make some
difference in how I felt. To set the record straight for you -- I am a CP,
been in the field since 1957 and from reading some of your messages over the
past months, have no doubt that I know far more about O&P than you and that
I have as much concern for the patients we serve as you. I just happen to
feel that there is no one right way, and that your way is not the best.
Tony, I too have been to visit amputees -- you are not alone in your self
appointed role.
