 Hey guys, it's Joe. So I wanted to update you because I'm doing it in nine days. I'm going to have it below the right knee leg amputation It has not been an easy decision to make. I have done a lot of thinking a lot of talking to people and Honestly the decision eventually came down to trying to quiet all the voices and Listen to myself and what I really want and that's foreign to me in a lot of ways But realizing that if I'm making this decision for myself and my body, it's what I need to do and so yesterday I made that call and Got it on the schedule and in Yeah, nine days I will have my lower leg removed and start a new chapter of life I'm finding that it's really really helpful. It's my puppy making noises there She wants me to play with her really helpful to connect with other amputees like through Facebook support groups people have been so helpful and just talking to people in person or Over messenger or whatever asking questions and getting educated because I feel super overwhelmed by all the things I don't know but at the same time I know that there's no way I can actually be prepared Fully, I mean I can't estimate the impact that this is actually going to have on me Aside from knowing that this is the right choice and doing it. So that's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna go in as prepared as I can be and Go from there. This is going to document my journey. I look forward to you taking this journey with me. Thanks guys
