WHO - OR WHAT - IS FOOTLESS JO?

CLICK HERE to join our community on YouTube!

Footless Jo is, well, me - but more specifically, the part of me that is learning how to find a new normal after losing my leg on October 11th, 2018. I began chronicling my emotional and physical journey weeks before I was wheeled into surgery, and continue to film a few times a week.

Below you can find my entire archive of videos relating to life after amputation! But don't be deceived - these aren't just for amputees. More than anything, I want people to know that no matter what they are facing, there is a way through it. I am in the midst of finding my way through this challenge - come with me.

To donate to ROMP, head here! ➡️ HTTP://www.rompglobal.org/beastmode 💜 To clarify: I have a lot of thoughts on Mr. Beast's video and channel as a whole that I do not share in this video (I am not a fan of his) - I made this video today specifically to raise awareness of the incredible work that ROMP is doing, and to educate people about the rest of the story when it comes to ongoing care of amputees.
