About this listen

 One decision changed my life. After 30+ years of riding without a helmet, I finally started wearing one… until the one day I didn’t — and that’s the day I was hit by a car. In this episode, I share the raw, unfiltered story of my motorcycle accident, the brain bleed, the devastating injury that led to my foot amputation, and the long road back to walking again. From the surreal “helmet premonition” to the brutal process of healing, getting fitted for a prosthetic socket, and learning to live pain-free as an amputee — this is my story, told to help anyone facing the same journey. If you’re an amputee, love motorcycles, or just want a reminder of how fast life can change, watch until the end. And if you’ve got questions about prosthetics, limb loss recovery, or riding after an injury, drop them in the comments — I’ll answer them in a future video.📌 TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 – The day everything changed2:15 – Why I suddenly started wearing a helmet4:42 – The crash that took my foot9:30 – Degloving injury explained13:05 – The amputation & my first prosthetic socket19:22 – Keto weight loss & prosthetic fit problems23:10 – The pain of learning to walk again29:40 – Encouragement for new amputees#Amputee #MotorcycleAccident #ProstheticLeg #MotorcycleSafety #AmputeeLife #BikerLife #Motivation #Prosthetics #MotorcycleCrash #LifeAfterAmputation🎙 Welcome to Just Davit — a wild ride through real stories, dark humor, and the kind of chaos you can’t make up.
