Real Bionic Woman

Claudia Mitchell got into a really bad motorcycle accident that messed her arm up. She had to get it amputated and the doctors gave her a prosthetic arm. Now she can do things that she wouldn't have be able to do with just her one good arm. About six months after getting the prosthetic arm, she began to notice that when you touched her arm in a specific place that she could feel it in her hand. She could feel heat and touch. She is called the "first Bionic Woman."

I would be so scared if I were to lose my arm and have to get a prosthetic one. I think that I wouldn't be able to handle it without my family, friends, and God being there with me, but I will admit; I would rather have a prosthetic arm than no arm at all. Claudia Mitchell has so much bravery and courage to be the first woman ever to get a prosthetic arm. She has most likely encouraged many women to do the same thing as she had done.
