I read an article in the Times the other day about medical interns and
residents forming a union. Hmmm. If any group of people EVER needed an
organized presence it is sure that amputees do. Why hasn't someone
(with talents in that direction) stood up to take the helm??? There is
a 'consumer's union' and this would be just a specialized form of that.
It would give amputees a voice and a presence which would be a force in
the prosthetics industry and in medical circles as well as in insurance
and other areas. We need this. Very curious that no one has taken up
the challenge. GB.
