MAKEUP WITH ONE HAND?!

Tilly Lockey fractured her right arm at school just before Christmas, adding three months of physiotherapy to her existing recovery from a leg-lengthening operation. She shows how her Hero Arms prosthetic hand lets her do makeup and daily tasks even with the cast on.

Okay, let me tell you what happened. It was non-uniform day at school, and so I went, and then at break time I tripped and fell. And I don't know if you know, but recently I had to have an operation to lengthen my leg since it stopped growing due to the meningitis I had when I was a baby. So that was my main priority, not to let that get harmed any more than it already was. So I broke my fall with my right arm, and it really hurt, but I thought the pain would die down after about 5 to 10 minutes. So I went to my next lesson, which was music, by the way. So I was playing the piano with my one arm, but it still hadn't got better by then. So I was like, something isn't right here. So my mom came to pick us up, and then we went straight to the hospital. And long story short, I fractured my arm about 4 days before Christmas, so I was absolutely gutted about that. And so they put it in a cast for 3 weeks, and they said once I get it off, I'd need 3 months of physiotherapy after that, which I was also gutted about because I'm already doing physiotherapy on my leg to try and get that bending after the operation, and now I'll need physio on my arm as well. So wish me luck. But the Hero Arms came in so handy these past couple of days since I'm double amputee, so I usually do everything with my two arms together, but not having one of them, I'd really have to rely on this hand, and I'm just so grateful that I have it. And here's just a quick video of me doing my makeup that I got for Christmas. Hope you enjoy.
