Hey, I saw your Q&A at meta house the other day and just wanted to say how inspirational it is what your doing. Everyone was completely engrossed in what you had to say. I think everyone, including myself, learnt a lot…. Keep up your amazing (hands on) work in Cambodia 🙂
Oh and keep us posted in what your up to out here… Would be great to see more of what your doing!

Next week Canadian cyclist Steven Sumner, who lost one leg in a traffic accident, will be present at the screening of Matthias Emcke’s German film “PHANTOM PAIN,” starring Til Schweiger at the German Cambodian Cultural Center. The film premiered at TIFF 2009 and we had Matthias Emcke here at the Goethe-Institut Toronto for a Director’s Talk. The film is a tribute to Sumner, who is currently riding around Cambodia on his bicycle delivering mirror therapy to amputees. Great work Steven!

Dear Stephen,

We just spoke on the phone, like I said I work for AFP news agency, which along with Reuters and AP is one the world’s largest global news agencies, and I’d be interested to hear more about your mirror project in Cambodia with the possibility of doing a story. We can talk more at Meta House but the idea would be to cover some of your background, how you got to this point of coming to Asia to hand out these mirrors, and then ideally we’d like to be present when you share your mirror technique with Cambodian amputees and then we’d like to get their reactions.

I’ll see you around 6pm at Meta House, my numbers are below just in case.

Best,
Michelle

Hi Emily, Richard, Chris and Lauren How are you all? Happy lunar new year to …
I met Stephen Sumner at Metahouse this week where his incredible story was screened, as a German film.
Stephen is in Cambodia and keen to introduce ‘mirror therapy’ to amputees with phantom limb pain. It seems to be a very intuitive, simple and cost effective way to treat pain.

If you think you can help with his passionate and compassionate pursuit in Cambodia, please reach out to him.

Hope to see you around!

Regards

Sonya

Hi Stephen,

We met in Cambodia on the boat trip from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh. Hope all is well.

It was inspiring to meet you and I am totally touched by Cambodia and its people. You still there or back home?

If you were to think about a similar activity in Spain, do count with my support and help.

Best, Carmen Rios
