Welcome back to my channel, sorry I have been away for so long! I discuss my mindset shift after a life with pain and how I view life now knowing my pain could come back.

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF AN AMPUTEE: PROSTHETICS DAY
Переглядів 8 тис.3 роки тому
My first vlog style video. I travel to Preston to pick up my latest prosthetic, a gym arm. I also discuss the messages I get on social media, have a picnic and discuss my love life. Let me know what you think about this more chatty/casual style of video and design ideas for my arm. Instagram: keiraforsythe Twitter: Keira_Hamish
NEW PROSTHETIC UNBOXING
Переглядів 7 тис.3 роки тому
Unboxing my new prosthetic. Custom built for TaeKwonDo it should provide protection in training, because who wants Stumpy getting hurt? I explain the process of making this prosthetic as well as showing the end result. Instagram: keiraforsythe Twitter: Keira_Hamish
YOU'RE AN AMPUTEE... NOW WHAT?!
Переглядів 24 тис.3 роки тому
So you've had an amputation, now what happens? This was my experience in the 3 months post-surgery after losing my forearm, a time I think is rarely discussed and I was oblivious to what life would be like during this time. keiraforsythe Keira_Hamish

    What a cool solution you and your prosthetic team came up! I hope that it works really well for sparing. We will need a video of it in action. I love your accent (I’m American, so anything else is always nice to listen to), and your sense of humor literally had me laughing out loud. 🤣

    Wow, such an amazing prosthetic, lets try it on! I absolutely love this chatty style of vid! Showing how you do things is just a fantastic idea! Horrific comments about your arm, really!!!??? I can't believe it, makes me so angry, there're real weirdos out there, depressed and frustrated about themselves and their own situation, that said they want to destroy all the beauty in live!!! Please ignore them, they're not worth it!!! And as an ambassador, what's about your fav colour as well as the colours of the national flag on your arm??? Love you, love Stumpy!

    CONGRATS on the new prosthetic! I saw Dr Jepson yesterday to start my journey for looking at the CRPS in the leg which may lead to above knee amputation time will tell

    If it's more comfortable it's a good opinion to wear a Prosthesis!!! At all a "robot arm" is pretty cool! You are a cool person and an atractive young Lady! Great how you manage all!!!!

    You have a shorter reach with your left arm. Punching will be very hard, and as I understand it, punching IS an integral part of Tae kwon Do. Isn't there a better solution for a prosthetic, one with a fist?

    Happy Birthday Stumpy 🎂. Great video Keira, having the same CRPS as yourself I am currently looking at amputation as an option so it's good to be able to get the views of someone who has gone through it and "beat" CRPS and is now in remission.
