If you or a loved one has suffered from amputation, help is just around the corner. Arkansas is home to the American Amputee Foundation as well as several support groups. I highly recommend that you become a member of the Amputee Coalition of America too. If you still cannot find the help and support you need, contact me directly and I will help you find someone to talk to. In addition to life care planning services, I also provide care management for those with catastrophic injury and illness so I have many contacts within the amputation and prosthetic communities.
