I was made to feel comfortable immediately as everyone was friendly, candid, and helpful. I had many questions, mostly regarding logistical issues of dealing with life’s daily challenges. I consider myself fortunate to be able to attend meetings regularly and would recommend it to any and all amputees.

Hope in Motion has provided all of us an opportunity to grow and deal with our handicap, but more importantly it has given each of us the chance to help and support each other and make a meaningful contribution to the quality of life of our friends and ourselves.
