What does it feel like to lose a part of you? Is part of your essential
psychological self lost as well? And can a prosthetic limb ever replace
that? This week, the pioneering field of psycho-prosthetics - the
psychology of adapting to a prosthesis. Powerfully candid stories of life
after limb loss, and the love/hate relationship with a synthetic limb that
just isn't your own.
