摘要註
Dancing With the Stars sensation Amy Purdy reveals the story of how losing her legs led her to find a spiritual path. When the Las Vegas native was just nineteen, she contracted bacterial meningitis and was given less than a two percent chance of survival. In a near-death experience, she saw three figures who told her: "You can come with us, or you can stay. No matter what happens in your life, it's all going to make sense in the end." In that moment, Amy chose to live. Purdy inspired a nation on Dancing with the Stars. Here she reveals the intimate details of her triumphant comeback from the brink of death to making history as a Paralympic snowboarder. At nineteen she contracted bacterial meningitis and was given less than a two percent chance of survival. Her journey is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the capacity we all have to dream bigger, defy expectations, and rewrite our stories.
