That’s the ICRC trans-knee prosthetic
Workin’ on the railroad. Sort of. That’s the ICRC trans-knee prosthetic. He gets it for free if he can make his way to the clinic… .
Giardia Lamblia
Giardia Lamblia. Can’t seem to shake them. Tenacious little devils, and the cure (in this case Tinidazole) is, at the moment, worse than the pestilence: headache, neckache, vertigo, cramps, bloating, trembling, extreme lethargy. It goes on. At least for the moment I’m not enduring ‘explosive diarrhea’ which can be a real show-stopper.
Gotta look close
Gotta look close, this poor little fellow lost his leg way up high by the hip. Cancer. He’s holding on to his nub. Seems to be doing well too. At the Catholic Mission, Battambang.
A letter to David Butler
My hus has suffered from PLP for 25 yrs immed after an accident which left his L arm paralyzed with limited innervation (none from the elbow down and partial in bicep only). He’s given up on everything…nothing works for him. I rigged a mirror box for him to try. He didn’t get immed relief but feels his left hand for the 1st time in 25 years! feels like he’s “working it”. We will cont to do therapy in hopes that his pain will lessen. I am grateful for your research and insight. Thank you!!!! A letter to David Butler, neurologist @ NOI, Adelaide. It works, man.
