From soles to souls

Part of my backstory is I used to be a limb-maker (prosthetist-orthotist is the fancy title). The joke is I moved from looking after soles to souls. Of course the distinction is not so great, as caring for one part of a person inevitably involves caring for the whole person. So it was great to read this article this morning on a quad amputee, with a similar backstory to several patients I worked with in the past.
