George,
With respect I ask the following questions :
1. Why do you, and others(I presume), feel the need for an Amputee
Union ?
2. What would be the purpose of the Amputee Union ? What would you hope
to accomplish ?
3. Why would the ‘industry members’ quake in their boots ?
4. What if the ‘profession’ or ‘industry’ started their own union ?
Would everyone be back to square one ?
5. If you truly want to take charge of your own destiny, should you not
become a Prosthetist, Orthotist, C. Ped., etc., and handle your own care
? ( I know O&P colleagues that do just that. ).
Respectfully,
Reed Coleman, C.P.
