Why People Assume I THINK I'm WorthLESS! (After Amputation)

The number of people who have encouraged me that I STILL have value after amputation. Their compassion and kindness is SO appreciated - but I've never thought I actually was worthless or had less value with disability...so where do those (kind) comments come from?

MY STORY //

Fourteen years of pain and failed ankle surgeries brought me to 2018, when I made the difficult decision to become a twenty-seven-year-old below-the-knee elective amputee. This channel is to document my journey of amputation surgery, recovery, and reclaiming my life.


MY PROSTHETIC LEG:
I use the Ossur ProFlex XC Torsion foot/ankle with a direct socket with passive vaccum suction.
