Arlene Cohen, from Pembroke Pines, FL, is a below the knee amputee in her left leg. Cohen had an unfortunate accident in which she broke the distal end of her tibia. After the accident she ended up getting osteomyelitis on her ankle joint. She was then given the life altering decision to either have her leg amputated or to have it fused. After plenty of research, she chose the amputation. Thanks to the Thrive VS2 Prosthetic Foot and her perseverance, Cohen is now back to work as an active duty firefighter for the City of Fort Lauderdale and is as active as she has ever been before!
