United Prosthetics had an amazing time at the MR8K event, supporting all the runners from our booth at Cisco Brewers. We were thrilled to keep everyone fueled up with Gatorade and granola bars and to connect with so many incredible people along the way!

Special thanks to our Treasurer, Mary Martino, Anne Marie Martino, and our inspiring patient, Joe Lemar, who represented Achilles International Boston and showed the true strength of a champion. Joe, a former Paralympic gold medalist at the 1992 Barcelona Games, reminds us daily what determination looks like.

Also, a big shoutout to Blades, the Bruins mascot, who stopped by to check out our custom Bruins socket art prosthetic! We couldn’t be prouder to be part of this incredible event and community. We look forward to seeing you all again next year!

We love these first-time user videos because we get to witness people doing something they have never been able to do before. Oftentimes, they aren't even aware of how life-changing this newfound ability can be.

In the case of this young girl, she has been missing her hand since birth and has been getting by without a prosthesis to date. As she got older and more independent, she started recognizing some of the limitations the absence of her hand presented and decided it was time to explore a prosthesis. And judging by the smile at the end of the video, she is glad she did!

Keep in mind that these impromptu stack challenges introduce the patient to the basic function of the hand. This Ossur i-Limb Ultra hand has significantly more capability, including preprogrammed grip patterns that the patient can utilize with some practice to perform many everyday activities effortlessly.

Cindy, who is missing all of the fingers on her right hand, received her very first i-Digits partial hand prosthesis, and was kind enough to put on an impromptu demonstration for us. As she left her appointment we put her on the spot to see how adept she was at stacking cups! She handled the challenge like a champ and successfully completed the task. Make no mistake- this is not an easy feat, especially after only having worn the new prosthesis for a couple of minutes.

Cups were what we had around, but you can imagine how incredibly life changing it is to go from not being able to grasp anything, to being able to use a knife, fork, toothbrush, or keyboard for example.

As she becomes accustomed to the new prosthesis and with more practice she will be even quicker. Who knows, maybe we'll see her out there on the cup stacking tournament circuit!

As a quadrilateral amputee (missing both legs and both hands) Lawrence has considerable challenges when it comes to performing even the smallest tasks. Despite these challenges, with his positive attitude and new i-Limb hands, he is able to open up considerable opportunities to improve his independence and lifestyle.

In this video you can see him marvel at his new found ability to put on his own hat, open and use a plastic-capped water bottle, sign his name, and more! These were tasks he picked up within minutes of receiving his new hands. With additional practice and therapy he will continue to gain vastly more skills- and with each new skill the ability to incrementally improve his life.
