What happens when a story about limb loss hits the news—and suddenly everyone you know is texting you about it?
If you’re part of the limb loss community, you already know.
In this solo episode of We’re Not Stumped, host Mike Bolland dives into the experience of being “the limb loss friend”—the person others turn to when they don’t fully understand what they’re seeing but want to connect.
What This Episode Covers
Mike shares insights on:
- What it feels like when everyone sends you the same limb loss story
- Why people reach out—and why it usually comes from a good place
Why Enable Review Was Created
This episode also talks about Enable Review, a community-powered platform designed specifically for the limb loss community.
Enable Review allows amputees to share real, experience-based feedback about:
- Prosthetists
- Orthotists
- Clinics and rehabilitation care
Because when someone is new to limb loss, they shouldn’t have to rely on headlines, guesswork, or generic online reviews.
They should be able to learn from people who have actually lived it.
