Monday
Monday I had my final fitting for my first prosthetic leg. Should have a useable leg next week. In case anyone has ever wondered, a prosthetic leg for a below the knee amputation cast about $25,000. Luckily I have insurance but you have, or I have, a whole separate deductible for something like this. Mine is 20%.
It’s real easy to start a pity party and look around at what it’s cost me (my entire hunting gun collection). Or what I want but can’t afford to buy.
But, God is good. I’ve broken my neck in what should of been a fatal motorcycle wreck and walked away. Not unscathed, but walked away. Now I’ve survived a flesh eating bacteria with only the loss of my lower right leg. My wife and boys are healthy, we have a roof over our head, food to eat, my boys know they are loved and safe and I can’t ask for any blessings beyond that!
