I wanted to thank everybody who replied to my message where I was looking for elbows. There were several individuals who replied with used ones and advice. I also want to thank Jackie Bradford with Hosmer Dorrance Corporation, who was able to find several elbows and other components for us. Thank you, Jackie, for your extra effort in helping these Haitians who have gone without limbs for a combination of 15-20 years. I appreciate this great community we participate with and hope there is some way I can return the favor in the future.

Subject: [OANDP-L] Looking for elbows
All,
I've put out emails in the past on this list looking for prosthetists
who would be interested in joining one of our teams. Of course, I am
always looking for any who would be interested in going with us,
however, last week while I was in Haiti we met with 2 patients who need
Above Elbow prostheses. I'm emailing today to see if anybody has any
used/out of warranty/or other elbow components so I can fit these 2
patients in Haiti without having to figure out how to come up with the
$700 part for each one. Is there anybody out there who might have
access to something like this?
I look forward to your responses.
Best regards,
Matt
