Today marks 8 months since they they took my left leg below the knee. It feels like just yesterday, yet at the same time feels like a million years ago. So I decided to mark today in pictures instead of words.
It’s true, I have achieved a lot, but there is still much I also want to achieve.
Here is some of what I have been up to in the past month or so.
The first time I managed to pass someone on Zwift – I need an amputee avatar! 
Winter sunshine in Queens Park 
A recent photo comparison – what do you think? 
My new Union Jack leg!! 
my new porous ‘sports’ liner 
all the shoes I can’t wear with an artificial foot. 
Back at the top of Forest Hill! 
New grab rail installed at the back door 
now officially permanently disabled! 
the tattoo I had on my left foot, reworded and put on my left arm. 
New Doc Martens! The only shoes I could get on the artificial foot! 
mass wood delivery – moved by my amazing staff!
