Students With Disabilities
Kathleen A. Curtis, Peggy DeCelle Newman
Abstract
Greg had become interested in physical therapy during his own rehabilitation after an automobile accident at age 15. Following a very serious left lower leg fracture, his surgeons performed a below-knee amputation. He wears a prosthesis and maintains an active lifestyle. In fact, he competed in football and hockey in high school and currently plays intramural basketball. He hoped that he would be able to help others with amputations in the future .
