First leg has arrived

I got my first leg yesterday. I went to Seacroft hospital leeds and the technology been used for my leg meant i could get my leg fitted and taken home in the same day. The software used was CAD/CAM and used a lazer to scan my leg and get a perfect shape for the shape of my socket for my false leg. There was alot of waiting about yesterday but eventually I got my leg fitted and after a few adjustments there it was my first leg. I was told that they had ordered me a better foot and should be on its way in a few days. Eventually I am going to end up with two legs one for everyday and one for sport.

Getting the leg is a step in the right direction and theres only 4 months of cancer treatment left. Still got the whole fed up ora around me but im coping ok and its christmas soon so thats something to look forward to.
