      Drew, Thanks for being an inspiration to me, and for sharing your knowledge about the PS2 foot with DS so new amputees like myself have info to go on at this very important time in their life. God Bless You, preacherdave

      Hi Drew. I hear you have a PS2 also. I just got a new leg last week and decided to go with the PS2X3 foot. I tried the Endolite Elite and Esprit feet in addition to the PS, but in the end, liked the PS better. Wishing you a good day.

      I am an RBKA. I lost my leg in February of 2007 due to Vascular Disease brought on by Diabetes. Prior to that I lost all of my toes from my left foot in a series of amputations. I have experienced a few setbacks since but I overcame them and I am now doing well.

      Treatments

      Physical Therapy Working / Worked
      I think PT is a must for all amputees soon after amputation
      Prosthetic Device Working / Worked
      Worked very well for me
