Amputation is the removal of a body extremity by trauma or surgery. Many have undergone amputation or have been living with a missing limb since birth. In either case, life as an amputee can be challenging. This is the place to find others going through the same experiences as an amputee.

What would happen if by some chance your life ended today? For some of us this could be a reality because of the health problems we face, or if by some fluke we were to have a serious accident, heart attack or cancer. If there were only two choices, Heaven or Hell, where would you go and why? What would you base your answer on?
These questions are not meant to cause controversy, but rather to find out where we think we will end up and hopefully find the truth of the matter. Life is a very fragile affair and if not taken seriously certain events and consequences cannot be changed after the fact. We have choices that need to be made this side of death and the consequences of procrastinating can have eternal repercussions.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I am happy with my choices and how I have lived my life.

There are many false gods in this world and many teachings that were created by man, that if let alone and unchallenged will take a man or woman to Hell as quick or quicker than the fastest flying missile or bullet. You have to base what you believe on some type of actual truth and not on one's own, "I hope so, so it must be true."
I always thought that when I died I would stand at the pearly gates and Peter would come out and say to me, "Hey, you've done more good than bad and your a pretty nice guy, so God said I should let you in." That's kind of what the big church teaches, that my good deeds or good works would earn me favor with God. That if I kept the sacraments and keep up my membership I might make it. There was no guarantee and that bothered me, that no matter how hard I tried I might not make it. Isn't that kind of what a lot of people really think? Be honest about it, isn't this true of most of us, that we think we can earn our way to Heaven just because we want to go? It doesn't matter what God says about it and if He disagrees with me then He's unjust and cruel and I'll have nothing to do with a God like that. That has been the response of several people, that if God won't accept them on their terms then He can take a flying leap because I don't give-a-flip what He thinks...Its what I think and want that matters and because I think it, it must be so!
The Devil has deceived so many people into thinking in this way and he is trying to take as many people to Hell with him as he can.
I will post again in a little while to give folks a chance to think about what I have said. I hope that we can all be understanding of what is going to be a reality one day for all of us. As many people that are born into this world, just as many die and all someday will die. Do you want to take a chance of eternal suffering because your pride wouldn't let you look at any other options?
Roughly there are 6.4 billion people on this earth and about 64.5 million die every year, that's about 176,712 people who die each day, or 7,363 people an hour or 123 people a minute or 2.2 people every second of every day. Don't you think it is important enough to figure out where you will go with certainty, and with an absolute knowledge of whether you will be in Heaven or Hell? It is the most important question in your life at this point...
The one thing I have in my life that will never fail me is my Faith. It is just that Faith that has me believing that I will be to Heaven. I do not need documentation or scientific proof to keep or discard my Faith.
I live my life according to my beliefs and principals. God makes the final decision in the end.
This is only my opinion. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and all of us should keep an open mind to what every one of us has to say.
faith. I am at peace that after life in this world I will live in the kingdom of G-d.
