Tumor...fuck...

It probably does. My grandpa lost his toes a couple of weeks ago due to a bad artery causing a lack of blood flow and then dead toes. He said that he could still "feel" them there.

[JN210]

yea, I still feel it sometimes. Its because when a limb or toe, finger...etc, is amputated the nerves have memory and they are still sending signals to the brain from the limb they remember being there, so it takes awhile for them to adjust and heal adn eventually forget that its there. That leg cost us 7K and the socks for my "nub" were 500. Walking with it was really weird for the first few steps / feet, but after about halfway down the hallway I managed to get it to start working good. Its funny though when I forget that my leg isnt there anymore and I go to scratch my leg, its not there and im left dumbfounded going "oh yea lol" but I can crutch around just as if not faster than before if I dont have the prosthetic on. Im going home today so you may or may not see me cruisin around.

how long you on crutches for?

[JN210]

Ive been on them for the past 5 months, and probably will be on them for another...2-3 months until I can safely walk again and feel comfortable with it.

I finally got my slideshow copy of my leg in cd format and here are some pics of what kind of nasty shit was growing inside my leg and im happy it was amputated because in one of the pics you can see how it was growing inside of my bone even so it was gone already. These are actual pics of my ACTUAL leg.

then here is the pic without most of the meat cut off and cleaned up
