My Children See Their Mum, Not My Missing Arm
I lost my right arm in January 2019 after battling arteriovenous malformation for years. The surgery marked a painful but necessary turning point in my life. Returning home was overwhelming. I had to relearn simple tasks and face raw emotions. My husband and family stood by me, yet there were days I felt lonely and trapped in self-doubt. Becoming a mother to three boys changed my perspective. My children never defined me by my disability. They see my love, my laughter, and my care first. Today I share my ordinary life—cooking, working, making mistakes—to remind others that a difficult moment doesn’t have to define you. It’s proof that possibilities still await beyond life’s toughest challenges.
