Well, I found a much better place to go for my leg. Turns out that the shrinker the original guy had me wearing was all wrong. It rolled to below my knee, so the only part getting shrunk was the...

Well, the guy I was going to let make my leg has flaked on me again. He told me he would make my leg Thurs. or Fri. Now, he's saying he can't come until Tues. I asked him is it going to be a...

I'm a nervous wreck. I'm happy, scared, worried and filled with anticipation. I don't have any idea what to expect. I saw a photo of someone's stump and it was thin and conical shaped. As...

Here it is, 2:00 am again. Ugh!So, I thought I would ramble a bit until the hot chocolate and flexeril does their job. That's how I get back to sleep.I wake up in the middle of the night with...

Would anyone care to tell me a bit about the different kinds of prosthetic legs? BKAI'm working with some guy that comes to my house because he doesn't have an office, just a shop. Oh, and he's...

Wow! It's 2:30am. I woke up on my stomach with my back locked up. Thought I was going to be stuck like that. It took a couple of minutes to work myself into a sitting position. It's very...

Well, this certainly hasn't turned out the way I thought it would.My below the knee amputation has completely isolated me from the rest of the world.Just showering is a terrifying experience. I...

I don't know why I feel the way I feel, I just do. I was doing so well. As I've said before I am bipolar with more emphasis on the depressive side.So, I've been depressed. I loathe myself for...

All is going well. My physical therapist has been working with me and he says I'm doing just great. I give all the glory to God. You see, I'm a very large lady and I was afraid it would be too...

Wow! I took my first steps yesterday with my leg. It was so weird and scary. You all know that I've been in my chair since May. I only had it on for about 10 minutes and I couldn't believe...

Anyhoo...I feel like my blister and I are going to be together forever! Accccckkk! My nursing services have been cut back so now I can go up to 4 days with the same yucky bandage on. I would do...

It's my B-day and I remember when I had my surgery on May 6th, I asked my doctor if I would be walking by my birthday and he said barring any complications, sure. I was so hopeful. Craaaap!I...

Well, I went to my PCP yesterday and he did a culture on my 'blister'. i now have a staph infection in it -- yay me! Nope, I'm not going to feel sorry for myself, even though my whole apartment...
