In the novel "Of Mice and Men," Candy is missing a hand, not a limb. After losing his hand in an accident, he becomes self-conscious and feels marginalized on the ranch where he works.
Candy was marginalized in society due to his age and physical disability, which limited his ability to work and contribute in the same way as the other men on the ranch. This made him vulnerable and prone to being taken advantage of by those who were more powerful or socially accepted.
As a worker he provides no real useful services as he old, weak and disabled. The fact that he is so powerless and at the mercy of his boss shows that he is diminutive and not an important member of society.
Opinions on Candy in "Of Mice and Men" vary, but overall he is seen as a symbol of loneliness and isolation, as well as a representation of the vulnerable and marginalized in society. Some may sympathize with Candy's situation and see him as a tragic character whose attachment to his dog mirrors his own fear of being discarded and forgotten.
The word marginalized is a verb. It is the past tense of the verb marginalize.
