Can anyone here help....

I received the following e-mail. Can anyone here help....
Al Pike, CP
............he is currently still in the hospital and has had both legs
amputated above the knee and both arms amputated below the elbow. Obviously,
there is a lot to deal with here - but right now I am looking for someone who is
also a quad-amputee to be in contact with him. I have done a peer visit and
have other members of our group going to see him. We have no-one in our
group who is in a similar situation and the ACA was not able to provide a
contact either.
Basically, I am asking if you know of a quad-amputee who could be in touch
with this person (preferably someone who has managed to cope with this
situation so he can be encouraging). Also, do you know of anyone who is able to walk
with bilat AK and use prosthetic arms/arm?........
