I think she was about
to show me her stump
My first sighting of a female amputee was when I was around 12 years old. The lady lived down the street from me and her husband asked me to do an errand to the shops for him (a suitable reward was promised). On my return to his house I noticed the car had left it's space so I knocked on the door. My knock was answered by a female voice saying the door was not locked could I please bring the milk into the kitchen.

I had never seen Mrs X before and was almost knocked over with surprise to find her in the kitchen - but standing on only one leg. She seemed amused at my surprise and explained that she had been in a hit and run accident when she was younger (she was around 40 at this time).

Seeing my interest she told me that she had had her leg amputated almost to the hip and we talked around the subject for almost half an hour and I think she was about to show me her stump (I was aroused beyond belief at this point) when her husband returned to the house.

I had to wait some time before I saw that stump but that is another encounter.
