Publisher's summary

True Grit and Grace tells the story of a woman's life forever altered by a horrific motorcycle accident that shattered her right leg. Despite the initial recommendation to amputate, she endured 34 surgeries to save it. However, as a sexual-abuse and divorce survivor, she determined to save not only her leg, but her career, her dreams, and her dignity.

Amberly Lago's unwavering commitment to regain her active lifestyle transformed her tragedy into a victory. She motivates listeners to find resilience in their own difficulties and is a fierce advocate for others who, like her, suffer from complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). Her story proves that any challenge can be overcome with the support of others, determination, a sense of gratitude, and belief in oneself.

Inspiring Story

In 2004, I was in a motorcycle accident that left me fighting to save my foot. I have encountered so many of the struggles and demons Amberly did except mine lead to clinical depression and 2 suicide attempts. Amberly's story has given me the inspiration to, even though it has been almost 20 years, fight to accept my new normal and get my life back. This book needs to find its way into the hands of any accident victim that has had life altering injuries....I know my recovery would have been different.

Soul Warming! Touching! Inspirational!

I can't believe how much insight, inspiration, and VITAL life lessons you packed into the pages of True Grit and Grace! Amberly, thank you for this gift. The lessons have already been imprinting into my life and showing up in major ways - especially in today's challenging times when we all need a little grit and a little grace to continue growing, moving and learning!

Life changing!!

I was struggling with CRPS / RSD, to the point of struggling with suicidal thoughts as my only way out, when I heard Amberly interviewed on The Today Show. I got her book and began following her on Facebook. Amberly offers true hope in practical, honest, daily strategies that are bite-sized and realistic for even the people living under the worst forms of this vicious medical condition. I credit my being alive, healthy, joyful, hopeful, and being the woman I am today, to a handful of special people who daily poured life and encouragement into me through my darkest nights, pain flares, job loss, court hearings, medical appointments, parenting issues, housework challenges -- CRPS ravages every aspect of your life -- Amberly is one of these women who, out of her own life story and courage, has become my friend and cheerleader.
