MEET BECKY
Cancer Survivor Turned Amputee
Becky first came to us in June of 2009.
Due to complications from cancer, Becky had endured repeated surgeries in an attempt to preserve her leg. Becky recalls that each surgery was supposed to resolve the problems she was having, yet her quality of life became dictated by an almost constant pain.
Finally, it became clear that a below knee amputation was necessary to alleviate Becky’s pain, bringing the total number of her surgeries to an estimated 30! During the time Becky has been with us, we have seen her steely resolve and positive attitude take her from a limited life with constant pain to a life without limit in her new prosthesis.
Becky states, she can do anything, just like a kid. I can go biking, do yard work, anything! It has been our great pleasure to come along side Becky on her journey to recapture the active life she so enjoys!
