Hello, my name is Heidi. For three years my surgeon and I tried multiple surgeries to save my right leg. Due to constant infections, I was faced with amputation. I had a below-knee amputation on December 3, 2018.

My life suddenly changed forever on November 11, 2016. I was a passenger on the back of a Harley. We were struck head-on. I got the worst of it, with 26 broken bones, five compound fractures in both legs, and missing bone in my left leg.

Before I was born, my parents knew something was wrong. The doctor thought I would have club foot. Not long after my birth we had moved from Arkansas to Colorado.

This is my story. It begins with a simple act of kindness. On April 19, 2017, a single moment changed everything. I got out of my car to help someone push their car off the road because I was worried about their safety.
