On today’s episode is Josephine Bridges, who was diagnosed with terminal bone cancer at the age of just 17.

Miraculously, after exploring different treatment options Josephine managed to overcome the cancer, but still had to endure bone recovery surgeries on her leg every two years.

After 11 years of being in and out of hospital with these surgeries, Josephine finally decided to opt for the amputation. What followed was a gruelling period trying to adjust both physically and mentally to life as an amputee as Josephine struggled with phantom pain and mental illness. 

As a result of her struggles, Josephine decided to start the charity Positive Bones, which aims to empower people with limb difference to live a life without limits.
