Because I'm Not Done Living | Terry Oh | TEDxRegina

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. By all accounts, Terry has confronted many challenges in life. Despite physical challenges, he continues to find meaning, purpose and exciting new directions. Case in point - when he loses a leg, he discovers new ways to express himself.

Terry Oh is self described as "a tattoo artist turned cyborg." After losing part of his leg in a motorcycle accident, Terry focused his energy on making the best out of an unfortunate situation.
Terry defines his resiliency as an ability to "Change, Adapt, Endure, and Persevere."
Through a partnership with a company out of Calgary, he was been able to apply his creative gift as a tattoo artist to design tattoo-like decorative pieces for prosthetic limbs. He is excited to share his story with the TEDxRegina audience.


About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
