📰 "This New Bionic Knee Is Changing the Game for Lower Leg Amputees"
🗒 "In tests of walking up and down stairs, as well as avoiding obstacles while walking, the three-later prosthetic performed substantially better. It also scored higher in patients’ perceptions of whether the object was part of their body or just a tool, known as embodiment."

From the #FreedomFlotilla

Canadian physician Yipeng Ge sent me messages and video footage from on board the #Handala, a flotilla carrying children’s #prosthetic limbs, #medicine and baby #formula with the hopes of delivering the items to #Gaza.
The latest effort comes after the Madleen, a previous flotilla that had Greta Thunberg and other activists on board, was illegally intercepted by #Israel before it could deliver #HumanitarianAid to Gaza.

So I found out it's an orthotic #prosthetic for a leg #amputee & it's been at Fisher Building for decades. It was apparently there before my first orthotics appointment in 1980. The current staff don't know much about its history so it's now on my things to research in my spare time.
Old school / #vintage leg #prosthetic - it's so heavy!

Preparing for disruption…
When I got my hip revision about 3,5 years ago, I was hoping it would last me at least 10-15 years. So when I recently got a CT scan, and the surgeon saw the results... I got a diagnosis that didn't excite me one bit... I mean, it was good to know that my pains and discomforts had a valid reason, that it wasn't "just me" and all that... I never thought that I would need to get my hip socket/bowl/cup (or whatever it is they wanna call it) reattached because it was letting loose... 😔 I need to have my hip area tested for infections, as I had several after the surgery. I had three months of loads of heavy antibiotics to deal with, on top of the recovery of the surgery itself. And seeing that an infection can be a cause of the socket coming loose, the doc needs to be sure that the area is clean. If and when the area is clean, then the surgery will be scheduled. I have no idea how long this will all take, but... People knowing me also know that in my brain, I am already trying to plan everything that I need to arrange and do when that surgery comes.

Android Handedness
Androids, especially advanced or physically active varieties, have a much higher likelihood of being ambidextrous than human or mutant human characters do. Roll 1d10 on the following table at character generation, however, medical, technician, scientific and military android categories all gain +2 on the following 1d10 roll.
Table XR-51/ Android Handedness, Roll 1d10
1-3. Left Handed
4-9. Right Handed
10+. Ambidextrous
