The Things we Do with Feet

On Sunday Mel attended a workshop on feet at SLSPO run by USAid Ray Pye, who demonstrated his long history with making and breaking prosthetic feet. She also participated in a round table with folks from most P&O device supplying workshops and clinics to get a feel for how many devices are fitted each year in Sri Lanka and to what clientele they serve.
