I was 19 years old studying Physical Education in my 2nd year at University, planning to join the RAF as a PTI, when I was diagnosed with bone cancer. I underwent several painful operations and had 6 months of chemotherapy. To my disbelief I discovered less than 12 months later it had all been a mistake and I had never had cancer. I eventually had to have my right leg amputated above the knee. It took me 8 years to successfully sue South Birmingham Health Authority.
Me!

Legless
As I've already mentioned I have been 'legless' on numerous occasions this week. I thought you might like to share this picture. I went to the Gym and Pool with my swim buddy Vicky one evening this week when she saw the state of my stump she decided to put her day job Doctors hat on, take charge and carry my 'Magic Leg' (as my children call it) back to the car whilst I used my crutches. That's what friends are for :-)
