LindaK my thoughts and prayers are with you and your Dad. Poor fella .. as betty said, it has got to be painful .. Lorna said had they not taken her leg when they did, she would have cut it off herself .. Lorna had a blood clot lodged in an artery in her left ankle.
She hasn't lost her prosthesis .... her stump keeps shrinking, so, the 'bucket' it sits in has to be down sized .. quite the science to all this .. I'll see if I have a pic of her prosthesis

Our Smokey likes to go out and look around with his ONE good eye .. mostly he sniffs the air .. he would love to be able to feel grass under his paws ..
Not anytime soon .. we are expecting 7-8" of SNOW today !!
Gag me, we're going out, good thing we have 4x4s !

The first pic is Lorna's prosthetic leg now, in the second pic (3 years ago) she was in physio learning how to walk, but, you can see that awful BELT that hold things in place .. made of neoprene, VERY warm in the summer. A new high end leg would get rid of that ..
