In a March 2020 interview with The Register-Guard, the daily newspaper for Oregon’s home of Eugene, Martin said about the prospect of losing his leg, “I was grateful that I was able to hold it off for a long time. I thought it would happen at 27 not 47. But it has happened. I’m just going to do everything in my power to save my leg.” He added that he had considered an amputation, recognizing that a prosthesis would enable him to walk without pain, but noted, “If I lose my leg, it would be an above-the-knee deal, and it’s pretty risky for my situation anyway. It’s something that I’ve recognized could happen, but I would really rather not, if I could save it, because of the risks.” At the time of the interview, Martin was scheduled to travel to Washington state to be fitted for a special carbon-fiber leg brace that could potentially redirect his body weight in a way that would allow the fracture to heal.
