>>35822680I got curious about this some time ago, so I googled it and found out that many people choose not to for two reasons: The first being that they're attached to their legs emotionally, cause it's their body and they love their body the way it is, "I don't want to get rid of my legs! They're mine!". Secondly because with how medicine is advancing there may be a cure or some way to reverse the damage in some future, to the point where they can walk again, so they don't want to risk their chances by cutting their legs off, there's no turning back from that.
