There are millions of American living vibrant lives with prosthetic limbs. Getting used to your new limb after surgery might have challenging moments, but you’ll have plenty of people in your corner offering support every step of the way. And in those hard moments, remember these 4 advantages that you’ll only be able to enjoy with prosthetic limbs. 

Your prosthetic limbs

The best spots in the parking lot are reserved for those with prosthetic limbs.  Because an amputation patient is considered by legal definitions to be disabled, a handicaped placard is in your future. And you know how close those handicapped parking spots are to the front door of every business. So when you’re feeling overwhelmed, just think about how you’ll be the envy of every other driver in the parking lot when you pull into the front position. 

Plenty of savings and discounts

There are a whole host of special programs and discounts for amputees. Be sure to look for them and don’t be ashamed of using them. You paid a big price for those discounts. Cash them in.   

Physical and emotional help available

Adjusting to life with a prosthetic limb is a tough journey, but there are plenty of caring medical professionals that you’ll meet along the way. Anytime you feel like you could use a little extra support either with physical limitations or your emotional health, all you’ll have to do is ask. Thankfully, amputation surgeries and prosthetic technology has come a long way, and more is understood about the challenges that exist for these patients and how to help them most.   

Prosthetic limbs and your new community

There is a whole community of people just like you that would love to have you join them if you choose. When you come across other amputees, you might experience a sense of mutual understanding and great empathy. You might also easily make new friends with them and experience some of the most meaningful experiences ever.
