My other leg was amputated in October, last year. My legs were not injured, but there was a wound of a sharp instrument and then it was cleaned and stitched, but it seems as if something developed inside, inside that wound, and they couldn't band the leg and then I saw a lot on my knee and I was sent to day hospital at Guguletu. And when I asked them to - they told me they are going to treat me, but they couldn't. So I said I am losing weight because of this.  So I had to go to Conradie Hospital. I was very sick and it was clear that the leg was beyond repair. So I talked to the doctor and then explained to him and I had a letter from another doctor at the day hospital.  The doctor asked, so he admitted me for a while, took me to the X-ray, and they could see that damage was too far gone.  But it was very painful.  So about October they decided I should have it amputated and then I signed I agreed. I agreed.  They asked me if I would minded. I said no. Then they amputated it in October last year. I am still under the treatment of that doctor, even now.
