Girl tells story of losing her leg to...
I was 15 when it happened. We were on a family trip, boating in the lake. It was supposed to be a perfect summer day, but one wrong step changed everything. The boat stopped suddenly, and I lost my balance, falling into the water. Before I could react, the engine pulled me toward it. The pain was indescribable, and when I was pulled out, I realized my leg was gone.
The journey after was brutal—surgeries, therapy, and learning to walk again with a prosthetic. But the hardest part was accepting this new reality. I went through depression, questioning, ‘Why me?’ Over time, I found strength in sharing my story. I’ve discovered resilience I never knew I had. Now, I’m not just surviving; I’m thriving—showing others that even in the face of loss, you can rebuild and live a beautiful life.
