Dear Bertrand,

Thank you for your kind comments below. Thank you also for allowing me to
share your words with other members of the prosthetic profession whom often
generously donates to such causes.
Generating a recharged spirit as you eluded to, is what this is all about.
If the Barr Foundation can help in your endeavors for prosthetic supplies at
the resources center in Jamaica, please let us know.
