Need your help on important projects - Photos & Video Clips

Post by Tanner's Mom »

Hello,

I am currently working on a few projects for the United Brachial Plexus Network. One project is for the website and the other is Spotlight On (a 5 minute documentary on bpis to air on national public television).

I am in need of collecting quality photos of adults with this birth injury. I am looking for photos that have real visual impact. I am hoping to collect images after surgery, in casts, splints, or braces. But more importantly, I am also looking for images that clearly depict paralysis, deformities, posturing of the arm, internal rotation, winged scapulas, contractures, smaller arm, etc.

I am also hoping to get a few good video clips from adults showing their limitations, etc.

If you might be willing to share PLEASE contact me at Lisa@ubpn.org or call me at (928)856-1513. I would be happy to chat or answer any questions.

Any ideas, contacts or help would be greatly appreciated! We can only make a difference by coming together, by sharing and by truly caring to make a difference for our bpi community and for future babies. Thank you so very, very much.

All the best,

Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: I weighed 11 lbs. 4 oz. when I was born.
I was delivered by forceps which resulted in my ROBPI.

Traci,
You are the best!!! I received the DVD. I am touched by how much you care to help others and your openess and willingness to share. If only there were more Traci's out there, we could create a much needed and louder voice.
Thanks again,
Lisa
