Will it be hard to walk in them?  Will I ever be able to walk normal?  I've seen videos of bilaterals walking fine and other vids where you can definitely tell their walking is off.  Does that have to do with the leg lengths being off?  Of course, I'm super excited to be able to stand and walk again.  I know it will be tough, but it's up to me.  I don't want to have to use a wheelchair again.  It's just hard finding stuff out there regarding bilateral amputess.  The ones I have found are usually C-legs and those are definitely out of the question.  Does anyone here use mechanical knees?  I'm going to go with the Endolite KX06's based on recommendations.  I'd like to hear other bilateral amputees' experience with walking again.  By the way, my amputation was in July.  I've been doing excercises to strengthen my core, though.  Thanks for your advice!
