My sister, Stumpy.

This is my sister. We call her Stumpy. She lost her right leg in a tragic accident at her work. She is a therapist at a live-in school for teenagers, and one day a disgruntled kid picked up a ficus tree, pot and all, and chucked it across the room and it shattered her knee. While in the hospital she developed gangrene and the Dr.'s had to remove her leg. If you look at the picture, you will see where her knee used to be. Poor Stumpy. But that girl has got heart. In that picture she had hopped her way on one foot all the way up a mountain to go see some caves. She has impeccable balance.
