 Imagine
a disease that combines the worst symptoms of cerebral
palsy, muscular dystrophy, cystic fibrosis, cancer and
immune deficiencies. The A-T Children's Project is a
nonprofit organization that raises funds to support and
coordinate first-rate biomedical research projects,
scientific workshops, and a clinical center aimed at
finding a cure or life-improving therapies for ataxia-telangiectasia
(A-T), a rare, fatal genetic disease that affects
children.

Success Story - Nancy
Quigley!
by Nancy Quigly, Patient - First Choice Rehab
Both
my husband and I have recently received physical
therapy at your Halifax facility. We would like to
commend the entire staff there for their professional,
yet friendly, courteous care and treatment. Compared
with a previous experience at a facility of another
provider, I was very favorably impressed and
appreciative of their service. Please convey our
thanks to them.
