Julie's Story About Wearing an ElanIC, Blatchford's Microprocessor Hydraulic Ankle

Julie shares her story of being born with a congenital defect and, after multiple surgeries and a lot of pain, having her left leg amputated below the knee. She explains how her first prosthetic foot - a fixed ankle - made her feel like she was missing her ankle but how moving to a microprocessor foot - the ElanIC - has changed her life and given her ankle back! Now she has the stability and mobility that she needs to do all the things she loves.

Looking at the beach, looks like Washington state. Did you go to Cornerstone. I'm testing different feet and I've found the ones that don't move are really tiring. I do have a hydraulic test one that I tried but they turned the motion to slow. Right now it's on my old test socket and in a couple weeks I'm going to have it switched to my new socket because I like the movement of the hydraulic one as far as follow through with my step. I'll show them your video to see if I can get one to test. Do you have the pin system or the suction system.
