I recently read somewhere that
"sometime every amputee will need some kind of adaptive equipment to do some
things." Here are some links to find help with specific technological
solutions to problems faced by amputees. Also, most car manufacturers will
give you up to $1,000 worth of adaptive equipment on a new car if you need
it. |
