From Tragedy to Triumph: Gini Thomas’s Journey with Osseointegration and Empowerment
In this moving episode of We’re Not Stumped, Gini Thomas shares her incredible story of resilience after a tragic motorcycle accident took her husband’s life and left her facing devastating injuries. After three years of limb salvage attempts, Gini made the courageous decision to undergo an above-knee amputation in 2015.
She opens up about her life-changing transition from traditional socket prosthetics to the Integrum OPRA Implant System, a bone-anchored prosthetic that has allowed her to walk unassisted and reclaim her independence. Gini discusses the challenges of phantom pain, the power of advocacy, and how she uses social media to inspire and empower fellow amputees.
Join host Mike Bolland for an inspiring conversation about healing, hope, and turning adversity into purpose.
