A week before Thanksgiving, I had to turn in my prosthetic leg to my Doctor, so he could adjust the socket.

On Oct. 23rd, I got a call from Hanger Prosthetics and Orthotics and they asked if I could come into the office because my prosthetic leg was back after being shipped to be laminated.

On Sept. 22nd, I had a doctor’s appointment with Hanger Prosthetics and Orthotics and all the parts to build my prosthetic leg was in the office. I was waiting while my doctor was putting my leg together, and he showed me the knee part of my prosthetic. I held it and I told him it was heavy. He said my new prosthetic leg overall will be heavier than my old one, but it won’t feel as heavy because of the technology built inside. The technology inside my knee is powered by Bluet
