April is Limb Loss and Limb Difference Awareness Month.
Some people who have sepsis end up having to get amputations. Also, sometimes, people who have an amputation develop sepsis.
This month, we honor Limb Loss and Limb Difference Awareness Month, and pledge to raise awareness, break stigmas, and celebrate the resilience of those thriving with prosthetics, orthotics, and adaptive tools.
