.Amputee Coalition shared new research this year, estimating that at least 5.6++ million Americans are living with limb loss or limb differences. The '++' is because this number doesn't account for individuals who are uninsured or covered by Veterans Affairs or TRICARE.

As a 25 year cyborg, I've watched tech advance & yet it never seems to reach those of us who are supposed to benefit. Being told 'actually war can have a positive impact on our community b/c it helps with advancements for prosthetics'

Happy Limb Loss & Difference Month
