Kat, Above Knee Amputee, Double Wall Prosthetic Socket Leg
We had so much fun with Kat as she experienced one breakthrough moment after another throughout her time at POA! She even went out dancing one night - the first time since her amputation.😊Kat is a very warm and fun-loving person; everyone she met became a friend. She returned home to Indiana feeling confident and excited about all her future possibilities! 💪🏼

Louie, Bilateral Above Knee PPS Socket Congenital Amputee
Переглядів 2,8 тис.Рік тому
Just six months after we fit him with his first PPS sockets, Louie has already grown so much (like two year olds do!) that he needs new ones. Today, wearing his new test sockets he felt confident enough to show us how he can now bend his knees while walking. 👋🏻 Louie really liked it when Stan put a video of him on the big screen! 😃 Soon we’ll get started on his running blades! #poaorlando #pros...

Переглядів 14 тис.Рік тому
Mykhailo arrived at POA about two months ago as part of a group of Ukrainian soldiers brought to the US by the nonprofit organization Revived Soldiers Ukraine. In that time he has dedicated himself to learning how to walk on prosthetic legs and becoming strong enough to walk unassisted. Yesterday, Mykhailo walked around our building, over uneven terrain and sloping sidewalks without a cane. Tod...
Ukrainian Soldier Hemipelvectomy Amputee Walking Unassisted
Переглядів 5 тис.Рік тому
Ruslan is one of the Ukrainian soldiers we have been working with this year. He became a hemipelvectomy amputee when he was hit by gunfire from an enemy tank. Today, Ruslan was feeling so comfortable, stable and strong walking on his finished prosthesis that he dropped his cane and walked around the facility unaided! 💪🏼🦿He and Roger celebrated with a special handshake afterwards 😂❤️. We’ve beco...

Girl power to the max! 🔥 Since losing her leg and sustaining other serious injuries while hiking in the mountains less than two years ago, Callaway has 100% gotten back to doing all the things she loves. She and her family travelled to Florida from New Mexico over the holidays to replace the prosthetic sockets she had outgrown. Callaway was especially excited about her new climbing leg with a s...
Kaden, Above Knee AK amputee, new PPS Prosthesis
Переглядів 1,5 тис.Рік тому
Kaden, who was already well over 6 feet tall when we saw him earlier in 2022 had another growth spurt just before Christmas. He had also worn out the hydraulics in his knee, and was amazed at how smooth he walked once we swapped it out! 😂 After the running leg was finished, Kaden’s mom challenged him to hop on it for as long as he could. That was “a piece of cake” for Kaden! Once all his legs, ...

Prosper travelled here all the way from Ghana after an internet search led him to some of our videos! Our double-wall socket for above knee amputees was a game-changer for him. “I could never walk in other legs,” Prosper explained. Within three days he was already walking outside the parallel bars! At this rate he will be running before he returns home at the end of this month! #poaorlando #pro...

We had so much fun with Charlotte! It was her first time at POA and she was a little shy at first, but soon she was giggling with us and playing with her new friend, Kimberly. 🥰. Charlotte loved her new ✨glitter✨ walking leg, and really took off once we fit her with her first running blade! As she ran and played with her friend, Charlotte’s gait, which is somewhat restricted due to the scar tis...
Gus, Below Knee BK Amputee, first running blade prosthesis
Переглядів 1,4 тис.Рік тому
Gus could hardly contain his excitement when Rick showed him his running blade prosthesis for the first time! He had already picked out fabric with a cool flames design to put on the socket - the same fabric he chose for his everyday leg. Gus had just one wish when he came to POA, and that was to run fast! He had been in a temporary prosthesis since his accident earlier in 2022and was more than...
Trey, Below Knee BK amputee, First Steps on Prosthetic Leg
Переглядів 3,5 тис.Рік тому
Trey had “bad” knees before his amputation, so that made learning to walk again more difficult. He also had the extra challenge of a broken wrist, caused by a fall just a few weeks before his trip to POA. Needless to say, Trey was ready for his life to move in a more positive direction. His good attitude and work ethic took over and on day one we had him walking on a prosthetic leg! He continue...

I hope that my 21 year old grandson can recover after leg amputation....he's waiting for his prosthesis.....🙏
Bravo !!😀I love this wonderful energy.Great respect 🕊️
man! I sure do wish I could be an amputee!
Too cool! So great to see! Today is Sept 15 2022, in 5 days I will be at POA for my first prosthesis. My life slowly slid away from me starting May 23rd 2018. These amazing people will help me get it back. I am truly grateful for being sent here. I'm about as happy a camper as I can be!!
That is truly inspirational! I'm very happy to see such a success story. Thanks, it gives me some encouragement for my situation
A little SUPERMAN !
Absolutely Yes ! 😀Great respect 🕊️🤝
I am happy to see him walking so naturally again. God bless him.
And how long has he been immobile?
Way to go Corky! Keep on truckin'.
Thank so much it's hard for him to let others in, and to let you publicly share his story. We are both so thankful beyond words. One thing he didn't mention is that in January of this year while recovering from an amputation he went in to congestive heart failure and with in 4 days had bypass surgery. He truly has had one of the roughest years ever. Everyday I worried that he was going to be able to hang on, but he did. He has a gift to help others, but not able to help himself. He truly is my soulmate.
