Welcome new veiwers to my first blog.
Bobby Puckett
Hello my name is Bobby Puckett and I am a bi lateral below knee amputee. I have been an amputee for ten years. Since then I have become very intrigued by both prosthetics and how people claim their life back after a devastating illness or an accident. This intense interest has led to a degree in Psychology from the Ohio State University and to pursue a degree in the O and P field. Also I have been active with two amputee support groups and I have done countless Peer visits with other amputees. In this blog I plan to discuss some of the topics and questions I hear in these peer visits. I know not everyone has the opportunity to speak with a peer visitor and those that do may not get to ask all of their questions. Also being an amputee I know that there is never an end to the new questions that may come to us in our daily activities. I’m hoping to use this blog as an on-line peer visit with other amputees being able to reply to the questions also.
