Amputee with 3 Feet!

Amputation is a surgical process to remove body's extremity(ies). The major cause is due to complications from diabetes. Others can include vascular disease, cardiac diseases, trauma - accidents, malignancy, infections and congenital deformities in infants.

There are 700 occurrences annually in Singapore and 80% of those occurs in the lower limbs......which means one or both legs gone!

Does that means no more walking? You can still walk with a custom made prosthesis......

But some other people can just walk without a prosthesis, because......









...........after amputation, he actually had another extra leg!

Very creative indeed!
