Episode 6: Rob Simpson - Spared the Knee: Robs Remarkable Road to Recovery

In this episode, we will hear from Rob, who faced life‑altering challenges after his amputation. When the tissue around his surgical site refused to heal in rehab and surgeons warned of a possible above‑knee revision, Rob prepared himself mentally, researched full‑leg prosthetic options and costs, and used private pep talks to bolster his resolve. Miraculously, enough healthy tissue remained to spare his knee. Supported by his wife, two devoted sisters, and his occupational therapist, he learned to navigate life in a wheelchair and on a walker, discovered how to secure financial aid for prosthetics, and adapted his home routines after a fall left his hip badly bruised. Join us as Rob candidly shares the resilience, support networks, and practical strategies that have guided his remarkable journey of recovery and adaptation to life after limb loss.
