The surgeon thought my leg needed to be amputated as the muscle had already turned brown from the lack of blood. When they turn brown there dead.



Holy crap I never thought you could lose your leg from kitesurfing wothout the help of a toothy critter! sobering indeed. Even after you fully heal physically no one could blame you if you are a little less ambitious when trying new or challenging stuff! Must have been terrifying at the time with the smell of rotting leg thinking you may never walk, run, kite, ski stub your toe etc etc. Good luck with the rest of the recovery.
