I live right down the street from a home for parapelidgics- they are out all the time shopping and going to strip clubs even! your life and independence are NOT gone! I myself have not driven for 6 years due to epilepsy- I get around on the bus as I am in a city but YOU are NOT loosing your independence... you just have to get good at asking for a ride or take a bus and you will get right around it! Besides- I'm sure there are plenty of companies- if your insurance won't cover it- that are ready to test new versions of prostetic legs out there that you will up and adam in no time IF your leg has to go- I have had 2 major surgeries and nothing is final until it's final. The drs all think they know but in your case I'd say anything can happen- maybe nothing even at all... Good luck! You'll never be unindependant unless you choose to sit on your couch and mope around for the rest of your life- I promise:P
