Dear Colleagues:

We are currently assisting a 18 years old patient, with bilateral through the elbow amputation and bilateral above knee amputations due to meningococcemia 3 months ago.
The family and doctors are looking for the best choices and options for his 4 prosthetic prescriptions.

What would be your components' suggestions?
Are you aware if there is any good website, source of information or support group for this specific case?
Any experience of yours on similar cases that could be usefull for us at this point?

Thank you in advance,
Jairo!
