The Amputee Couple Q+A

Hi all!

Sorry for the delay in the video. For one, this was a VERY long video to edit, and two, I had ankle surgery with complications that followed and ended up in the hospital for the last couple days. I will give you all an update on that at a later time!

But here is the Q + A I promised! Thank you to everyone who asked questions. Sorry we could not get to them all, but the video would've been three times as long if we included them all.

That being said, I have time stamped the questions so you don't have to listen to every one if you don't want to. Scroll through the questions you want to know about most.

And don't forget to give us a thumbs up and follow us on Instagram!
