I and my friends are trying to set up a quad rehab center , a fast one in Kenya , we need your input in doing this.Any idea on how to go about it , how to get equipments for rehab through funding organizations or donors. Also there could be members with equipments they no longer use but important to us ,they can donate. Some items have become obsolete in your country but to us they could be very useful. Through this forum I have gathered a lot of information that is useful in establishment of a quad center here and give hope to other quads in my country. Any one interested in helping us is free to contact me through quad-list or through my mail; [email protected] Thank you all for your helpful postings that keep encouraging us
