| Summary |
"On January 21, 2008, a routine medical procedure left Mallory Weggemann paralyzed from her waist down. Despite the pain of this life-changing reality, she chose to believe that there was a greater reason for her path-and that she was more than her circumstances. In Limitless, Mallory invites us into her journey of overcoming fear and self-doubt and choosing to embrace all that her new life has to offer. Now a world-record-breaking two-time Paralympic swimmer for Team USA, she shares a powerful message that we, too, can find the courage to conquer seemingly insurmountable obstacles and move forward into a beautiful, still-unwritten future. Anchored in love-of family, community, sport, and, most importantly, herself-Mallory shattered the restrictions that had been placed on her by society and has made it her mission to help others build lives rooted in possibility, potential, and promise. When we follow her lead and refuse to accept limits to what we can achieve, we throw open the door to a life that's bigger and fuller than we could ever have imagined."--book jacket. |
