Amputee Coalition of America 2010 National Conference

The 2010 ACA National Conference was held recently in Irvine, CA from August 26 to 29.  Sheila was one of the attendees sponsored by the NYU Amputee Support Program.  Because she was the only quadruple amputee in the group, a close family friend, Jo Lampa, accompanied her.  She really enjoyed being part of the conference and even got to see her cousin, Piah (the editor of the book) and her husband, Aaron, who happen to live in Irvine.  Small world, huh?  It was her first trip by plane since her illness.
