Always trying to fit in by not standing out seems to be my life’s mantra. Because of what happened to me at a young age, my life has been about accepting what makes me different while appreciating it for being my greatest strength. But I am not alone. We all have things that we have overcome and can use those things to make our lives limitless.
It is truly humbling that mine is a story worth featuring in this month’s edition of the O&P Edge.
Hi Leslie,
I can relate well to your own story as I lost my leg when I was 10. I wish someone had been there then for me the way you have been there for young children who lose limbs. What you do is fantastic!

Thank you, Angelina. Our paths are quite similar, aren’t they? I think I always try to give back and try to make things easier for other people because my own experience was not always that way. Sending you lots of love!
