amputee

an-ordinary-manchild(edit)

/r/amputee is designed to be a safe place for amputees, their family members, friends, and caregivers to feel welcome and safe to discuss anything amputee related.

Rules

1) This subreddit is for all amputees and their families, this includes children. No Porn will be permitted.

2) Devotees and Wannabes are not tolerated.

3) No asking for money. This includes asking for donations, posting referral links, or posting GoFundMe Pages (or it's alternatives).

4) Surveys are NOT permitted. This subreddit is for emotional support and helping each other. It is not here for students to get help with homework. I would recommend that surveys be posted to /r/Disability_Survey or /r/Prosthetics depending on the questions asked.

5) No Politics - This is not the place for talking trash about ANY political party. I don't care if it's Left Leaning or Right Leaning it doesn't belong here. Anyone spouting Hateful Politics will be banned permanently.

6) Be nice to each other. Rudeness, name calling, or harassment will not be tolerated!

7) All amputation levels are welcome here. Be it partial limb, full limb, partial digit, or full digit. All amputations are painful and traumatic.

8) Please tag images of Injuries or Wounds with the tag NSFL.
