My MC is an above-elbow amputee. The internet has been a good source of information so far. I found a company that specializes in prosthetic arms.
I want to talk to an occupational therapist about extensive rehab for upper limb amputees. (Other than what I found online.)
But I don't know any locally and I can't drive to a medical center because I can't drive. So I've been thinking about e-mailing an occupational therapist through the company with my questions.
Specifically how a teen would handle amputation.
Would that be a bad thing to do? They're busy. And I feel weird at the thought of interviewing an amputee ( if I knew one.) I want to talk with as many people as possible because I want to portray this sensitively.
