ER nurse in motorcycle crash comes back to work as amputee
IU Health Ball Memorial Hospital
In the fall of 2024 Christian Arvin, a nurse at IU Health Ball Memorial Hospital, lost his right leg in a motorcycle crash. After months of recovery and rehab, he's back to work with a prosthesis. "Six months ago I was laying in an ICU bed wondering if I was going to make it," said Arvin. "Now I'm up walking, doing activities, back to work... life is all about change whether I like it or not. I certainly can't get [my leg back], so how can I make the best of what I do have."
