A mother who lost her leg in an horrific car crash has found a new lease of life... thanks to pole dancing.

Lisa Eagleton, 40, had to have her right leg amputated below the knee following the smash in 2007.But, after months of rehabilitation and support at a specialist centre, she regained her confidence and learned to walk again.The mother-of-four from Wigan - who is also known as Lady Lush Lisa - went on to become an alternative catwalk model.Now she is also wowing crowds and takes part in competitions as Britain's only below-knee amputee pole dancer.Lisa, who had enjoyed dancing before the crash, said: 'Even months after my amputation, I was in pain every day, living on morphine. The socket in my prosthetic leg rubbed, causing blisters that resulted in me being barely able to walk.'I had lost my life as it was. I thought I had to accept my limitations. I was told I would never be as I was before my accident. Everyone was telling me what I couldn't do, what I no-longer was. I was depressed and in pain.'Lisa was referred to the Pace Rehabilitation Centre in Cheadle, where the support helped her walk again.(dailymail.co.uk)Bakudaily.Az
