    Help out a badass chick who just so happens to be an amputee

    I have this super cool job as a prosthetist. So, I get to make artificial limbs for amputees.

    One of my patients is also my intern and friend...she lost her leg below the knee a couple years ago as a result of a harsh bouldering crash and subsequent endless spiral of rehabilitation surgeries that left her with more pain and less ROM. Eventually she just decided to off the thing and has been crushing the shit out of everything in sight now that she has her life back and is no longer in chronic pain.

    Her husband is also a badass, and they've been at the Ouray Ice Park every weekend. She has a photo in a competition and if she wins she'll get some free gear and clinics. It's neck and neck with some other chick, but I'm telling you: Bee is fkn beast and deserves the shit out of this prize

    So, I'd really appreciate it if you'd take a second to scope the link below and vote for the picture you think is the best...which unless you're a fucking asshole you'd agree that her pic (Bee M.) is clearly superior.

    Thanks dudes.

    PS: Yes I built her prosthesis but some other amputee and badass up in Ouray or Ridgway made that sweet crampon ice climbing foot.

    Ottobock is a component manufacturer. I use their knees and feet all the time. I'm a clinician, so I design, fit, align, maintain, etc.

    Ottobock doesn't have any patient care facilities in the US.*

    There's another woman with ~700 votes on p.2, and they've been swapping the lead for a few days.

    I think it ends on the 25th

    Thanks all!!!

    That year down in Ouray for their first fest was a deep moment in my life. Glad to give some thumbs up to you and her.

    No shit Makers, I was there for that too. My wife was one of the two who won the fashion contest. Deep times indeed. Another thumbs up from here

    Done, it’s still neck and neck
    Scientists now have decisive molecular evidence that humans and chimpanzees once had a common momma and that this lineage had previously split from monkeys.
