Thank God for our vets.

I’ve said this in the blog before, but it never gets old.  If it weren’t for our people in uniform, we would all be in deep trouble.  Not that we aren’t, but if our service men and women don’t do what they do, I can’t imagine what this world would be like.  But anyway, I want to let you know that we have a few disabled vets that use our kits to help with their rehabilitation and we are deeply honored by it.  If you know of any military person that, disabled or not, veteran or current, that might benefit from our kits, just let us know and we will see what we can do to help them pass the time.

Interesting that paper models do help so much with rehabilitation.

I recently was very ill and ended up with neuropathy on my fingers. I have always modeled, but had to to stop as I did not have the ability any more.

Afterwards, as my hands started to improve, I started my own therapy program - with Lego. I then followed up with paper modelling - and it all really helped.

I think the basis on which it works is probably reteaching the sub conscious motor skills - just a guess!

PS - I am back to normal almost now and can model away again........

Veteran here. I don't know any veterans who need help, but I appreciate your offer.
