via Canadian Broadcasting Company (CBC):

Kerry Benjoe says she has come a long way from hating her prosthesis, 
to embracing it.

A Regina woman is finding peace in her new 'golden' prosthesis leg 
after struggling to come to terms with her disability.

Kerry Benjoe, a freelance writer, had her leg amputated in 2018 due 
to extreme pain which was caused by a broken foot that didn't heal 
properly.

She lost her foot to amputation, but found her voice to speak about 
domestic violence  

Happy 'Ampuversary': One year after losing my leg, I have control 
over my life again  

"Once you get the amputation the residual limb is rather large, it's 
like the size of your normal leg." Benjoe said. "It was really  
depressing and I hated my prosthetic."
