Peeta is not sure who was the last person to clip the toenails of his left foot. It was someone from his prep team, but Peeta can't remember which one. Somehow it feels like the final intrusion of his privacy. His leg is probably in some bio-hazard bag in the Capitol, or maybe they have put it in a museum. He doesn't know, and he can't even remember who was the last person to clip his toenails.
The artificial leg is not that bad. He has some phantom pain, but he also has a phantom girlfriend now, so it doesn't matter. They balance each other out. He barely notices the other.
At least Peeta knows for sure who was the last person to hurt his leg while it was still attached. It was Katniss with her silver arrow and too-tight tourniquet. It seems to be Katniss's job to save him by causing him pain.

(oh dear. don't know where this came from. don't even remember which one of peeta's legs got amputated. still, the idea of peeta's leg on some museum shelf cracks me up. the capitol folk might just be crazy enough to do it.)

Losing a limb doesn't really compare to losing a life
