Becoming Yourself Again
This client grew up receiving compliments on her elegant, long fingers. After losing her ring finger in her mid-20’s, this client lost the sense of pride she had in her hands and felt she had to hide them. She not only lost her finger, but felt she lost a piece of her identity. Upon wearing her finished piece for the first time, she choked back tears. Seeing the her finger restored was not just a matter of appearance; her prosthesis helped her become herself again.
