Did you know that April is Limb Loss Awareness Month?
While this is a time to celebrate people living with limb loss and limb difference, we also want to address the misconceptions and struggles people with limb loss often face. Tune in throughout the month to learn more about limb loss in the US and the incredible organizations working to help the limb loss community.
