Amputee group plans event

The Quillen Rehab “Shake-a-Leg” Amputee Support
Group will host its annual potluck picnic at the Winged

The group meets on the second Tuesday of every other
month. The usual meeting place is in the cafeteria at Quillen
Rehabilitation Hospital, 2511 Wesley St., at 6 p.m. The
next meeting at that location is Oct. 8 at 6 p.m., when Zach

about how Medicare changes will affect amputees.
Amputees, family, friends and members of the community
with an interest in limb loss issues are invited to the
meetings. For more information, contact Jerry Lee Lantz
