When I was recovering (Walter Reed army medical center)from injuries I received in Iraq, I worked in prosthetics department, the army wouldn't even let us consider making such a thing, they were definitely stuck on the old way of making limbs. That's a really great idea, I'd personally like to know more details of the limb?

Lost my left leg below the knee in 2018, thank you for your video post. I mountain bike and very active, got a movable ankle from California I use for swimming and mountain biking, majority of my prosthetics are Össur prosthetics. Never seen a foot like yours. The reason I lost my left leg is I had organ transplants in 2011 and my organ donor had been a ballet and jazz dancer. When she lost her life I received her left kidney and pancreas. They used a vein from my left leg to plug in her two organs. I was working on April 7th, 2018, six and half years after my donor had died and loaned me her organs, and her pancreas failed and I had gangrene in that organ and went to work that day. I had tremendous pain, and the organ had failed, and was rushed to a local hospital, that wanted to keep me and observe me but my middle sister showed up and made the hospital take me by ambulance to my organ transplant hospital on a two and half hour ambulance ride in extreme abdominal pain in my peritoneal cavity, and as soon I had the MRI and could barely stay still for that, I was in emergency surgery and five and half feet of my small intestine was removed and my donor's pancreas, the surgeon told me if I had not showed when I did I would have died. So due to all the infection in my body, and having had broken my left big toe with a motorcycle on a leg missing a main vein, the foot got infected, and nothing would stop that infection, and the left leg was amputated on July 9th, 2018 below the knee. I am very lucky to be alive and my donor's left kidney still survives in my body, and I use an insulin pump for the missing pancreas, and a continuous glucose monitor for the missing organ to monitor the levels of glucose in my blood. My donar's kidney keeps my blood clean and it is still alive in my body. So thanks to her, Lady Morgan Leigh Judd whom is my best friend in life I met on an operating table on December 7th, 2011 in a 12 hour surgery, she as well keeps me alive and been doing a lot more than people expected for surviving all this mess. She would be 28 years old now and she was born on September 8th, 1992 and she legally died on December 6th, 2011 at age nineteen and she had been in college and on her college dance team only six months. This is a link to a video when I first saw her, and had signed legal documents to have contact with her father in 2014... she was his only daughter... and she saved eight lives as an organ donor... and she had been number 7 in the competition... so 7 is my lucky number in life... all of this has cost millions of dollars in medical costs to stay alive, anti-rejection drugs cost 72 grand a year at six grand a month... so being alive is expensive... but my donor is indeed my best friend in this life, and in December of this year I will have survived 9 years with her left kidney still alive. I am about as active as she was in my life... wish all of you a good day or night where ever you are on planet earth... some times impossible things have strange miracles... at a tremednous price... kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGeqeoKla8x1fa8

Jean-tho Goyette Yep. I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, a connective tissue disorder. The vertebrae in my neck and low back aren’t held together properly so they slide out of place. I can dislocate something as easily as rolling over in bed. I have braces for just about every joint in my body and if it continues to deteriorate they will have to fuse parts of my spine together. Not really a mind over matter situation unfortunately.

Exactly.. the mind over matter is crap. Robotics and prosthetics has gotten to a point where an amputation isn't a huge issue to a healthy person. Other disabilities are still very real. I really hope that in your lifetime science comes far enough that you will be able to get some relief and remember that you're incredibly strong; moreso than most people will ever understand.
