When he was 34, Alex thought he had the ‘man flu’ but collapsed and was rushed to the hospital where he was given just hours to live and a 3% chance of survival. He had contracted Strep A followed by Septicemia which led to him having all four limbs amputated. As well as losing his limbs, Alex also lost his lips and nose. But for all he lost, he gained so much… a life with more purpose and passion to serve than he had ever known. A quad amputee who advocates for assistive technology and inclusive innovation, Alex Lewis is an inspiration for all.
