I love your story dear never give up I too lost my leg in a terrible motorcycle accident June of 2018 I am now back in the water surfing I would love to go surfing with you sometime right now I'm trying to find the right surfing foot so if you have any information you can contact me on Facebook

Your a rear foot amputee, I am facing a front foot amputation possibility, stingray, diabetes + Pushing myself through the summer as owner of sandiegosurf.com, a so cal surfing school + stupidity of not getting out of water sooner (too much summer fun teaching) and Urgent care not being aggressive when I did may result in amputation, I am very scared. I am on 6 week antibiotics after surgery. I would be a front foot amputee, 58 years old, on heavy side, a recreational surfer. If this happens I want to continue teaching and surfing. Biggest challenge?Any extra challenges a front foot surfer may face? How stable do you feel. I am 10" longboarder, that likes 1-3 foot fun waves in Oceanside Ca. Did your GF have an SDSU sweatshirt on? I am Alumnus.
