Action Prosthetics invites you to celebrate Limb Loss and Limb Difference Awareness Month from April 1-30, 2024! More than 5.6 million Americans are living with limb loss and limb difference, based on a recently published study: 5.6 Million++ Americans are Living with Limb Loss and Limb Difference: New Study Published – Amputee Coalition (amputee-coalition.org). Limb loss and limb difference affects people of all backgrounds, socioeconomic statuses, genders, races, ages, and other demographics. During April, we want to demonstrate how our community thrives and how you can participate.
Today, we are highlighting our amazing patient, Jim Wieman
(pictured with our Patient Liaison, Molly Null). He has been a
left below knee amputee since 1990.
When asked what advice he would give to a new amputee, he said:
“Talk to other amputees and get their advice.”
We are so blessed to work with Jim and serve his limb loss needs!
Molly, our Patient Liaison couldn’t agree more with Jim’s advice! If you want to talk to persons who live with limb loss, Molly would like to invite you to join A.C.T.I.O.N. Amputee Group TODAY! A.C.T.I.O.N. meets every 2nd Monday of the month at Story Point Senior Living in Troy, Ohio (2nd floor media room) at 5:00pm. If you do plan to join us TONIGHT, please be careful driving as the roads may be heavily congested due to the eclipse.
