Three receive new prosthetic limbs at Jasper Clinic in Pignon

I recently I took a trip to Pignon. While there  I had the opportunity to spend time at the Jasper Clinic watching the process as they worked on prosthetic legs for 3 patients that had been brought to Pignon the day before.  

Madame Pierre Camele is a diabetic she lost her legs 5 years ago and has been dependent on her children ever since.  She is hoping that a new prosthetic limb will allow her to be more independent and maybe live on her own again. 

Bien- Aime Lameuse is 28 years old he lost his leg  5 years ago in an electrical accident at the hospital where he works. He has been dependent on friends in the Dominican Republic to assist him with finding food and living. He is hoping that a new prosthetic leg will allow him to become independent and find work.  

Madame Mildred Benoit lost her leg in a truck accident.  She has an older prosthetic leg that was adjusted and fixed using a old ten penny nail.  This nail has rubbed on her skin and caused a ulcer.  She lives with her husband who is a teacher and 6 children.  She is hoping a new leg will help her ulcer heal and allow her to continue to care for her husband and children.
