Ben Cromwell was hospitalized with COVID when blood clots forced 
his legs to be amputated. As he learns life on prosthetics, he's getting a  
help with a power knee.

The last two years have been the most challenging years of Ben 
Cromwell's life. In July 2020, he was hospitalized with COVID-19.  

"I had severe clotting from COVID," said Cromwell. "It was resistant to 
medicine, and it took them 11 surgeries to try to save my legs, and they 
ended up having to amputate both legs in order to save me."  

He was amputated below the knee on his right leg and above the knee on 
his left leg. He remembers the pain.

my legs."
