Hey Gwen21, thanks for posting the links. Mcpl. Paul Franklin (ret) is working on this along with a few of our friends. If you want information, PM me and I will send along your contact information to him.
It is going to be a fantastic event across the country.
On a very practical note, Elrick is one above and one below the knee amputee. I can't image using a C-Leg (that is digital and costs tens of thousands of dollars) in the sand. Not only would the sand jam it up, you have to recharge it every night. The difference in mobility on whether or not...
Andrew, these are awesome! Do you know how a civilian can get a hold of the posters? I checked the UN Enable site but didn't see anything other than the press kit. Any contacts would be helpful.
Thanks!
What I think is the kookiest part is that she called to get the incinerator fixed for the first time and when asked why she said "so I can burn my husband's body in it". That might have been the first clue she was a bit off.
Crazy old bird makes me shake my head.
I am really glad that this sentence has been done and the trail is over. I read in the news today that the community in Tweed is going to do a healing circle today. I hope that this community and his wife find peace and are able to move forward.
As always my heart is very heavy to hear of any Canadian losses. My deepest respect and condolences to the Medical Branch.
Paul Franklin and Audra Franklin
I certainly don't mean to be blunt but your wife and you are just going to have to get used to being apart. I was married to my dh for 13 years, and spent 2 anniversaries together in that time. I also lived in a house for 3 years that he only lived in for 2 months. Such is the life and that...
Hi
During my second tour to Afghan the only people to receive recognition were two engineers that probed through a minefield to remove three patients from a destroyed vehicle.
They recieved a M in D.
The men who saved my life (Cpl Jake Petton) who placed a tourniquet on my left leg was told it...
Hi all this is Paul Franklin and thanks for the comments.
I may just want to say a few words on what was written in some posts.
First the War Amps is a very good organization that has a proud and respectable history. That being said the current batch of war amputees and injured/ ill amputees...
Andrew, as always thank you for sharing all these good news stories. You work incredibly hard and I just thought I would let you know how much it is appreciated.
We do indeed owe Bruce a debt of gratitude. When he was injured he got no financial support and fought like nobody else to get that changed. He is one hell of a guy!
Paul has sent me a couple of great pictures from the trip. It looks like they are having a good time.
Hello all.
I need some advice on procedure dealing with the spectrum of care and billing.
I took dh's wheelchair in for brake replacement and 2 days later get a phone call that it is not done because the preauthorization has not been signed. I emailed my case manager the day I dropped off the...
I have a good friend who served at Timmies in Afghanistan as well. Her husband is a soldier too and she wanted the experience. She loved it! I have a great amount of respect for our civvies who go and serve overseas. Every bit counts and helps.
