Right after the hunting accident, ripping that off every couple days. Within a month, I was actually, so October 23rd, by January 13th, I was walking again. Wow. But it was never going to be a foot that I ever really wanted to have. So March 30th, 2006, we went to Omaha, Nebraska, and we chopped her off. Because of complications? I was never going to be an athlete.

I would be limping around it the rest of my life. It was fused. I was missing like 30% of the bottom of my foot. It was never going to be a foot I could ever use, really. So it was just going to be a foot that looked like a foot, but it was nothing that I was going to be happy with or be able to actually play sports with or anything like that.

Well, this will be a first-time podcast. So back then, you only used to be able to put feet underneath on a pylon system. So you had to put an adapter on the bottom of your stump, and it went to a pylon to a foot. Okay. All right. So they didn't make any feet that were lower than 7 1⁄2 inches to fit in there. So I could have cut it off there down here because my accident was actually right here.

Yeah. You know, blew this part away to my ankle bone right here, but they couldn't do that back then because, um, the adapter, nothing would ever fit in the bottom of your foot. Well, now we have feet that you put on the back of them, posterior mounted feet. Now I have a lot more athletic build and spring to them.

And so you could have did different, but my stump is really awesome because of the accident wasn't where my stump's at. So like I healed really, really well. Like everything went great. And, um, Yeah, I tried to go back and run track by June 1st after amputating March 30th. That was a mistake. I was still bleeding and thought I had to get right back into it and start training right away.
