Join us to read Kiara who is sharing her amputation journey with the limb loss community.
Kiara’s Journey
To begin with, Kiara introduces herself as a simple girl who loves her family, her cat, and the simple joys of life. More over, she’s passionate about fashion, cosmetics, drawing, and DIY projects. In addition, school is an essential part of her daily life, and she takes pride in her academic achievements. Despite facing illness and undergoing an amputation, Kiara remains focused on her faith, family, and education.
Furthermore, Kiara’s resilience shines through her remarkable journey. Despite this, her illness, Osteosarcoma, brought a drastic life change, leading to the amputation of her right leg. But, as Kiara shares, «there is always a gift behind an ordeal.» She has seized incredible opportunities, including participating in TV shows, meeting celebrities, and even singing live with her favorite singer, Kenji Girac. Not only that, Kiara’s dreams include regaining her long hair, lost due to chemotherapy, and pursuing a future in the world of hairdressing, journalism, or television hosting. But actually, an ideal day for Kiara would involve spending it on the beautiful beaches of Sardinia with all her loved ones.
The Power of Family
Transitioning to the next topic, in our interview with Kiara’s parents, they express their strong bond with their daughters and the challenges they faced as Kiara grew up. Kiara’s parents emphasize the family’s enduring support and the crucial role of family and friends in the lives of individuals with limb differences. Facing the initial shock and terror of amputation, Kiara’s parents, like many others, embarked on an unknown journey. However, they discovered an incredible support system, including doctors, physiotherapists, prosthetists, and fellow amputees who showed them the possibilities of living life fully even without a limb.
That’s why this Fighting Family offers invaluable advice to other families dealing with amputation. They emphasize that it’s not as monstrous as it may seem and they keep encouraging families to remain positive, as solutions, like UNYQ, are available. That courage is what Kiara admires about her parents, and also for their unwavering support throughout her journey. Their smiles and encouragement have been a constant source of strength for her.
Joining an Amputee Community
Is remarkable what this family is achieving by supporting other families and maybe for that reason is why they have had the need to be part of a community that supports them as well.
Kiara is part of the Android34 association, which supports children in obtaining sports prostheses. This community has been a valuable source of motivation and support for Kiara and her family, helping her regain her ability to run.
Kiara’s inspiring journey is a testament to the power of determination, the support of a loving family, and the confidence that UNYQ covers can instill in individuals facing limb differences. Her story reminds us that challenges can be overcome, and that uniqueness is something to be celebrated.
Thank you, Kiara, for sharing your journey with us, and for being a shining example to teenagers everywhere that UNYQ is for everyone, no matter the path life has taken them on.
UNYQ Covers: Enhancing Body Image and Self-Perception
If I had to give an advice to another UNYQer it would be: “if you’re an UNYQer, you’re great so don’t change anything.”
Kiara’s experience with UNYQ covers highlights the impact they can have on body image and self-perception. While a basic prosthesis may be functional, UNYQ covers offer a unique and stylish solution. Kiara’s excitement in embracing her own style with a UNYQ cover has given her an extra boost of confidence. Her parents appreciate the way UNYQ covers can help people regain a sense of style and individuality.
