Tony Cordell, a 35-year-old Midland, North Carolina, resident and
father of two young boys, lost both legs in a work-related accident
in June 2021. The former landscape production manager remembers
waking up in the intensive care unit (ICU), fearing he´d never be
able to walk or play with his two young children again.

"Being a bilateral amputee, the challenges are unreal," said Cordell.
"You don´t know how much you use your legs until you don´t have them
anymore. Things that were a normal part of your day - from playing
with your kids to going to the restroom to going up and down the
stairs -are now a challenge. It´s life changing."
