In 1975, I was involved in a serious accident on the family farm. After months in the hospital and a dozen surgeries, I ended up with an above-knee amputation. I have been an amputee virtually all of my life. I’ve worn basic prostheses and very advanced prostheses. As a patient, I worked with many prosthetists over the years, some good, some not so good.
