Educating amputees and prosthetists about what good patient care looks like. During this series I tell everything I have been through. Then I gained a new follower… the original prosthetist who set me up for failure. Funny how things work, but hopefully they learn.

I have been fitted with a socket in two different ways. A body/leg scan which to be honest, had bad results. Then there is a casting process which can be a little touchy, but well molded to your leg. So which is best for you? What type of fit process have you had? Surely that’s it right? Stick around for part 3: Under Pressure. #amputee #prosthetic #amputeelife

Gait training is a must for amputees. Not to look normal, but to keep your body mechanics functioning as they were designed. Not every amputee is the same and walking normal doesn’t make us “better” than others. It was just a goal of mine to achieve, and now I can help others understand what is going on. #amputee #walking #workout #training
