hi, i am so proud of you and you are an encouragment to me. Like you I had a serious skiing accident in 1996 and have had my 14th operation last january being my second knee replacement and bone transplant which didnt work. i suffer from RSD along with 4 other diseases in my leg due to this and I am sick to death being in constant pain for the past 12 hald years and failing operations. As my last operation didnt work I am going in in june for maniputalion, and if this doesnt work then I am looking at having amputation - and was just wondering what it would be like after. I am 43yrs, very active and before accident extremely sporty; so i also suffer from depression now due to the restrictness in my life now and obvioulsy the pain factor. So after reading your story, it gives me faith .... thank you and all the best. XX

Hey, he is a brave and determined young man. In a way, he is lucky that it was only a leg and not a form of paralysis. His options at having a normal life were much greater and excitedly more promising.
