I previously posted an inquiry regarding the UCLA CAPP TD. We have a 9 year
old boy who is using the CAPP, and from what I have noticed, and talking to
the parents, the boy is outgrowing the CAPP TD. The boy is satisfied with the
TD, and I have spoken to the parents regarding this situation. The parents
have told me that they too feel that the TD is not as useful as it once was.
The parents have told me that he has not complained about this but they
notice that some activities create problems for him. The parents realize that
it is time for another type of TD. As you know, when fitting a child, 90% of
the fitting is done for the parent. The parents want to keep the boy with a
body powered prosthesis. Any recommendations on a terminal in this situation.
