On to the next phase of things. I have started this week working with the Hanger lab and clinic established at Albert Schweitzer. The lab in quite an amazing setup and they have done angreat job organizing an amazing amount of supplies and meterials. The clinic is very busy, Monday in particular. Once patients have been assessed for a new limb, they are brought back a week later for delivery and can stay for 5 days to 2 weeks for training and daily therapy. The patients are amazing - tons of double amputees and they are so excited to get back on their feet. We often have to slow them down to not overdo it. As usual there are concerns about sustainability, but we have had a tech with us for better parts of the week for ongoing training. Should be tired enough to sleep like a rock but that always eludes me here- I am greatful for access to the HAS pool to blow off steam with my 5:30am swim. Hope to collaborate to bring a young girl and her
mom welearned about in Cap down for assessment this week. Whonsays anything happens by chance? Going to try to get some sleep. Love to all, Lauren
