Subject: [FigueroaFamily] UPDATE ON MARTIN - 02-15-17
Importance: High
Took Martin to Hanger Clinic Prosthetics &=
amp; Orthotics for his first meeting with the people who will be making his=
prosthetic leg.
They took at a 3D image of his leg for a c=
asting in which they will use to make the “socket” that will go=
over his amputated limb.
The preliminary socket will be ready for h=
im to come in next
Wednesday February 22 for a trial fitting to see how it feels and to=
make any adjustments for the final casting of the socket.
Once all adjustments are made they will th=
en have him come back the following week of the
27th of February and fit him with the finalize socket to =
use and take home to start walking around with.
So, if everything goes well Martin could b=
e up and walking around on his own within 3 to 4 weeks from today. Definite=
ly by the end of March he should be well adjusted to getting around on it a=
nd able to take care of his own needs
without the dependence of someone being here.
All is going well and quickly for him as w=
ell as for all of us but until then I still need everyone’s help for =
him and me beginning next week.
Martins appointment to go back for the fir=
st fitting as I mentioned is next Wednesday on
February 22nd at 12:00 pm.
I can’t do this because I have all d=
ay “Go To Meetings” coordination from 10:00 am till 4:00 pm.
Can someone please volunteer to drive Mart=
in to
Hanger Clinic which is next door to Baylor Hospital.<=

Address:
Hanger Clinic
3910 Gaston Avenue
Suite 150
Dallas, Texas 75246=
b>
I also know that he will need to be taken =
to the
Tom Landry Rehabilitation facility the following weeks after. I donR=
17;t know how many sessions but it could be the next three weeks after.
May need volunteers to take him to those a=
s well but right now we don’t know dates or times.<=
