My Story

Living with Amputation

My continuing journey & adventures since becoming a Bi-Lateral Amputee in 2015.
It seems a lifetime since my modifications and these days, I see myself as a regular able-bodied individual and rarely give a second thought to my disability, however, as each year passes, the personal battles rage on in a world changing too fast.
Life throws unexpected curve-balls at you sometimes, it’s at these times I so far, appear to find the strength to surpass the obstacle and continue the journey of life.

“In sharing my experiences and stories of how Amputation has changed my life for the better, I hope to offer hope to those who have not yet found their full potential and offer a guiding hand along lifes darker days”

Vital Golf Therapy, both psychological and physical provided by the local golf course becalms rather difficult especially when you have limited mobility For obvious reasons and perhaps some not so obvious golf carts and buggies are not the best friends of Green-Keepers as they face their daily battle against the elements to provide the finest workmanship on their hallowed turf. This means Disabled Golfers like myself must sit out competitions, activities…
