I was shocked to hear it, but w/ the state of prosthetics, he should be able to have use of his amputated leg. Some individuals who lost both legs in the military (from IEDs in Iraq, for instance) have run races with their prosthetic legs.

I think Flex staying positive is a good sign. I hope he knows the bodybuilding community is behind him through his recovery. He has been through so much in his lifetime and getting a chance to meet him and have him sign a copy of Flexibility for me was a moment I will never forget.

Flex had a press release issued. He states that he had circulation difficulties in one leg that became life threatening, & the surgery was essential to save his life.

I wonder if that circulation issue in his leg is due to a pinched nerve/nerve's? Would be my only guess. Damn, for a guy that has always maintained a lean physique & appeared otherwise healthy aside from kidney situation, and now an amputated leg?? Wtf is happening here? Shawn Ray mentioned flex had bouts of depression, I can't even imagine what his life's like now after this. Plus he just had a kid.

It could also have been complications of neuropathy from diabetes.
