How long has she been using it? It says

she's two decades without hand, and now can use this
this one used for years
she has less pain issues now

So has she been using this for two decades? Some years but less?

Seems like they connected it after using more traditionals for a while?

No, it says she was without her right hand for decades, and that she got this one three years ago. So I assume she did not use traditional prosthetics?
