I have been fortunate enough to go to Guatemala 4 times to help those that suffer limb loss. Typically I use components from donated prostheses. We take them apart and use what is serviceable. The demand is getting greater than the donations. I am in need of a Hosmer locking elbow, 5XA (RT), wrist unit w/flexion, lift assist, manual lock knee unit, 25 RT foot (pt weight=140 lbs), 21 LT foot (pt weight= 135 lbs), WASC knee, 2 TES (RT) belts for 34 in waist, 24 (LT) foot (pt wt= 130 lbs), LT cuff strap. If you have any of these items in good repair, please contact me.
Thank you and God bless.
