Description

A woman who spent nine months in hospital needing 'three amputations' feels like she finally has her life back - after getting a bionic leg.

Emilia Lindquist, 27, was diagnosed with lupus - an autoimmune disease which occurs when the body attacks healthy tissues and organs - when she was 19.

But last year the disease caused a blood clot in her right leg, which soon turned into an infection.

Doctors tried to amputate below the knee twice - but ended up amputating above the knee, because she was in so much pain.
