H.O.P.E. Program

Holistic Optimization & Pursuit of Equity

There are many things that improve amputees’ quality of life, however, most are outside of what insurance provides and are resultantly not affordable for most amputees. We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to have access to products and professionals that can help them. Our H.O.P.E. program supports the provision of care packages, holistic goods & services.

Care Packages:Our organization sends customized care packages to ALL new amputees in our program. Products are thoughtfully chosen to promote inspiration, motivation, enhanced mindset, comfort and health.

Holistic Goods & Services: Our organization funds a wide array or products and services for amputees. The list of items we have covered is extensive, truly anything that justifiably improves an amputee’s quality of life is something we will consider funding.

Examples of services we provide funding for: additional physical therapy sessions, mental health counseling, second opinion medical consults, hypnotherapy, acupuncture, massage, chiropractic, reiki, sound healing therapy and much more.

A H.O.P.E. Story

“My journey began with a 2.5-year battle with treatment-resistant CRPS in my left foot. The complications were severe, leading to skin breakdown and infection. After discussing the prognosis with my doctors, we decided to pursue amputation to prevent further complications. The hope was that I could regain the ability to walk with a prosthetic and reduce overall pain.

It was during this time that I was introduced to Tina from Less leg more heart. She connected me with other CRPS amputees who were able to answer my questions and give me hope that I was on the right path. The team at LLMH educated me about the process, guided me on what questions to ask, and advised me on how to make my home safer and more accessible.

The support from LLMH has been invaluable. Navigating through this journey would have been much harder without their knowledge and support. Seeing people thriving on the other side of this journey, and helping people like me, gave me confidence that there are better times ahead.

Today, I have more hope than I have had in over a year. The strength and resilience of others who are a part of LLMH make it possible for me to see myself thriving and living a full life on the other side of surgery. Before connecting with LLMH, I didn’t really have any good models of amputee life. But now, I am so grateful to everyone who has shared their journey and shown me that it gets better from here.”
