    • Close Amputees

      Twenty years ago I fell from a 5 story building. I was in the hospital for 6 month reccovering from many injuries also having my left leg amputated below the knee. Now I am dealing with my right foot that is falling appart with arthritis and also hurts all the time. The desition of whether having a below the knee amputation for that foot is in my plate now. I am looking for other double amputees to know their experience. How long can you walk, run with a double amputation.
