In this episode of the “We’re not Stumped” podcast, I invite some prior guests for a ‘sit down’. They are Dan Moses & Jennifer “JJ” Johnson who appeared on season one, episode 4 (https://youtu.be/2ZlJAVLo1e4) and John Higbee, who appeared in season one, episode 7 (https://youtu.be/XGjfVpJWEWw).
We all come to the table as amputees, but our stories are much different as I am a congenital amputee (born without a right hand), John is a bilateral upper limb amputee, Dan is a bilateral below knee amputee and JJ is a bilateral above knee amputee. Some of our stories are consistent, others not so much. Listen in as different types of amputees discuss their journeys.
