Reclaiming the Athlete Within | The Active Amputee
Reclaiming the Athlete Within | The Active Amputee
If you have ever lost something that once defined you (a sport, a passion, or even a part of yourself), you know the ache of wondering if you will ever find your way back to it. Many of us reach a point where we want to reconnect with the parts of ourselves that were left behind. My path led me back to the water.
Grit, Sweat, & The Summer Reality Of Limb Loss | The Active Amputee
Grit, Sweat, & The Summer Reality Of Limb Loss | The Active Amputee
Summer - the season of golden evenings, long hikes, and beachside relaxation. However, for individuals with limb loss, it also marks the beginning of a far less glamorous phenomenon: the intersection of heat, humidity, and prosthetic discomfort. It's a reality few discuss, but nearly every amputee knows all too well. Yes, we climb mountains and stroll along the shoreline, just like the images in motivational advertisements. Still, there's another side of summer that rarely gets airtime: swollen residual limbs, heat rashes, and the routine of nonchalantly removing a prosthesis in public while pretending it's perfectly normal. It's time we talk about the unfiltered summer experience of living with limb loss.

Accept, Adapt, Achieve | The Active Amputee
Accept, Adapt, Achieve | The Active Amputee
Life after amputation may feel like venturing into unknown territory. From learning how to move your new body to researching the costs of activity-specialized prosthetic arms & legs, it is daunting and frustrating to resume an active lifestyle after limb loss. In August 2021, I lost my left leg in an emergency above-knee amputation. I could not fathom what my life would look like post-op. In the hospital, I promised myself to take advantage of every opportunity I came across and to attempt activities outside my comfort zone. I needed to resume living, and for me, that meant returning to activities as soon as possible. "Accept, adapt, achieve" became my new motto.

Celebrating One Year of Cooperation with Click Medical | The Active Amputee
It’s been one year - almost to the day - since Click Medical and I started our collaboration. And what an exciting and rewarding year it has been. To mark this anniversary, I want to talk about Click Medical’s Adjustability Mentorship program. It’s a service the company offers to people affected by limb loss or limb difference to learn more about the potential of adjustable sockets and the available options people have for improved fit and comfort.
