My reaction to the amputation possibility? Believe it or not, it was “Whatever.” That was probably my first real test since I was found alive that I had completely put my life in God’s hands. No, I did not want to lose my leg, but if that was the worst thing that was going to happen to me after experiencing what I had experienced, I was fine with it. God kept me alive for a reason, and the loss of a leg wasn’t going to change that.
