Have you Returned From Battle Suffering the Loss of a Limb?
Sadly, thousands of veterans of the U.S. armed forces have returned from battle after suffering the loss of a limb. Many were victims of explosions that damaged limbs beyond repair.
Government reports show that thousands of veterans have experienced amputation injuries in Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation Enduring Freedom and unaffiliated conflicts. Fifty percent of these amputations are related to injuries caused by improvised explosive devices (IEDs).
While technology and modern medicine have made things a great deal easier for veterans, losing a limb can still be a devastating event. Many veterans find their lives permanently changed. The loss often affects they way veterans think, feel and act toward the people they care about.
These veterans often find it difficult to support their families. They may need to make claims for VA disability compensation. They also require prosthetic limbs, rehabilitation following the amputation and long-term care.
