Campbell believes every amputee should have access to quality prosthetics, which is why she’s sharing her story. When it came to blessings Campbell used to take for granted, walking was on the list.

Wimbish, a licensed practitioner of orthotics and prosthetics, says insurance companies are not following the spirit of the law.
