He hasn't had a meal at home in more than two years because he can't be on his feet very long to cook, the Enquirer said. His house during the summer is between 85 and 90 degrees because he can't use air conditioning, or his knee feels worse. He has had the surgeries, the first coming in 1979, knee replacements and multiple infections (in 2008 he was diagnosed with the bone infection osteomyelitis, which was not identified for two years) that have left his right leg 2 5/8 inches shorter than the other.
I couldn't fathom having to make this decision but this seems close to the point where his quality of life would improve if he opts to amputate.

I'm not saying it would be an easy decision AT ALL. I can even imagine having to make it but frick. I'd bet a pretty penny he'll be a happier guy if he decides to amputate it.
