jberna 6 Report post Posted May 31, 2004 InMotion is put out by the National Limb Loss Information Center. It is published by the ACA (Amputee Coalition of America). You can subscribe on the website, I believe. Or, the number in the magazine is 1-888-267-5669. Their website is http://www.amputee-coalition.org. Hope that helps. I enjoy every issue, this one more than most! Judy Utah LBK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnnyV 14 Report post Posted June 1, 2004 Hello everyone, I wish that I could have responded sooner. Judy, you are just so incredible. You have this magnetism that makes things happen around you. The incident with you that happened at the gas station that you wrote a post about http://www.heathermillsmccartney.com/forum...+Across+America with "AMPUTEES ACROSS AMERICA" http://amputeesacrossamerica.com . That was so very cool. And you received an advance copy of the May/June 2004 issue of In-Motion, that I hadn’t even received yet, and that there were mistakes in, and had to be sent back to the printer and corrected. That is why no one else has received it as of yet. But Judy got a copy. I like very much, having you on my team Judy. Things will always happen, when you are with Judy. I have been enjoying all of the praise and support that you all have provided me with for so very long, even before the In-motion article. I am glad to have you all on the same team with me. Famous you say? Well I am very grateful that I can make use of what I have, and that it can benefit others, and not let what I don’t have hold me back. This amputee forum, along with all of you great people who contribute to it, has helped to fuel that desire. The thing that makes me famous is having so many wonderful people like you to share with, and be a part of. Keep contributing to this wonderful resource that we all have here. It will only continue to get better, and take us to places and many pleasurable and memorable adventures, that will make our worlds so much better. Life is so great. I have attached a PDF copy of the article to share with you. I hope that you all enjoy it. Thanks for all of your support. Best regards, JohnVaccaStory.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
