In 2013, just months after becoming a new mother, Armeda Batchler faced the life-changing decision to amputate her left leg above the knee due to osteosarcoma. While she pushed forward with strength—balancing recovery, parenting, and work—she silently battled depression, isolation, and the weight of not wanting to ask for help.
Over time, Armeda discovered the power of connection, rebuilding a local amputee support group and stepping into advocacy to guide others through similar challenges. In this powerful conversation, she shares:
- Her cancer and amputation journey
- The struggles of parenting while adapting to limb loss
- How depression nearly consumed her, and what helped her heal
- Why advocacy and support became her purpose
A story of resilience, honesty, and hope.
