She might be greater/better than me probably in many ways but she totally did not grasp and/or understand the concept of why you need to ditch ‘hope’ the way it is thought traditionally. The woman that was selling her the pain meds and told her to ditch ‘hope’ is absolutely on point. Amberly failed to grasp it. I will explain why - people in the US are thought about ‘hope’ (indoctrinated by western religious ethos) which is to constantly feel hopeful about something which means you are unconsciously believing that whatever you are hoping for does not exist yet and you are hoping that it will come to you at some point, hence you are clinging on to that hope. But with paradigm shift that is happening now (which is not new in eastern philosophies) is to let go of hope because what you need already exists and you just have to be in that frequency to attract it. Much more sophisticated and powerful way of living your best life. So the pain meds lady was using that concept accurately. Amberly failed to understand that concept. I am not putting her down for it but just explaining it.

True Grit and Grace: Turning Tragedy into Triumph Kindle Edition
True Grit and Grace: Turning Tragedy into Triumph Kindle Edition
by Amberly Lago (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.7 out of 5 stars
The True Grit and Grace is the story of a woman's existence forever changed by a tragic motorcycle crash that fractured the right leg of her. In spite of the initial advice to amputate it, she had to endure 34 surgeries to save her leg. But, as a victim of divorce and sexual abuse survivor resolved to preserve not just her leg, but also her professional career, dreams and even her dignity.
Amberly Lago's unwavering desire to get back to an active lifestyle has turned her tragedy into a victory. She encourages readers to find a way to overcome their own struggles and is a tireless advocate for people who, just like her, are suffering from Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS). Her experience shows that any obstacle can be overcome by the help of others, perseverance and gratitude and confidence in oneself.

Reading the Kindle version of this inspiring story. Mrs. Lago, you are a true example of healing triumphantly. At first I was only going to glance at this book because I was in the middle of reading Harry Potter series again. However, once I started your book, I could not put it down! Your book took me away from Harry Potter, lol. The way you detail the story of grit, I felt like I was there. I could feel your pain. When you started to awaken to your higher journey, I was cheering you on and I could feel your grace. Thank you for lighting the way of hope for all of us to follow.
You truly are my new hero.

5 out of 5 Inspirational Stars for this one!
Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2018
There can be no doubt that everyone’s life comes with their fair share of trials and tribulations. We can be on top of the world one minute, only to come crashing back down to earth the next. Yes, nothing hits quite as hard as life. It can be magnificent, as well as cruel. An example of the utter harshness of life occurs when people experience a life altering tragedy. It is frequently during these bleak times that people will ultimately determine their own fate. They can choose to succumb and capitulate to their devastating circumstance… or they can do the opposite. In her book, True Grit and Grace, Amberly Lago illustrates how she selected the latter. For those who may be seeking an inspirational read which explores the power of positive thinking and depth of the human spirit…this is the book for you!
True Grit and Grace is a non-fiction book which recounts the author’s real-life experiences. It is presented as a Memoir with the central event being a motorcycle accident which forever altered Amberly Lago’s existence. However, it does not solely focus upon this tragedy and the painful recovery process. The book also intertwines the past with the present as the author relives her childhood growing up in Greenville, Texas. From an awkward childhood stage, desperately looking to receive some sort of acknowledgement and recognition from her family, to her eventual career as an elite dancer and fitness trainer. There can be little doubt that her upbringing and past prepared Amberly Lago for what was yet to come. While the childhood abuse was quite difficult to read, it nevertheless gave verisimilitude to Ms. Lago’s perception and outlook on life.
Essentially, I read this book in one sitting. This is not something which I typically do with non-fiction work. However, I found the author’s accounts so riveting and genuine that I just kept reading! To weave her childhood experiences with those of her present-day life was pure genius from a literary perspective. It ensured the reader was able to fully comprehend and appreciate how someone could experience such a tragic and excruciatingly painful experience, and still be able to see the positive and beauty in life. It reminded me of my own Uncle who has since passed on from a terrible disease. He would always say that he was the luckiest man on the planet and was overwhelmingly grateful to be alive each and every day. He would say this while sitting in his wheelchair and with the aid of a computer voice system as his throat muscles were no longer working enough for him to speak. I could never really understand how he could be grateful when life had dealt him such a cruel blow. Reading Amberly Lago’s book brought in clarity from the outside for me and I can finally begin to make that connection.
Perhaps more than anything, this Memoir stands out as an entirely honest account of the author’s life. With the aid of the Internet and YouTube, you can watch all the motivational and inspirational speeches and clips your heart could ever desire. However, they are frequently just that…clips. Amberly Lago’s story is real, genuine and inspiring. To encounter such devastating pain, and still be able to approach life with overwhelming positivity and hope is no easy feat. She is also very frank and honest about her down times as well. She does not pretend to be superhuman and we are able to experience her ups and downs and raw emotions as the book progresses. As the reader it feels like we are actually there in the moment. That is what true engagement and sheer engrossment in a book is all about!
The writing in this work had a very smooth and natural flow to it. The progression was natural and at no time did it feel forced. All in all, I found this to be a very inspirational and motivating read. It brings a certain clarity to the difficulties and hardships of life which will be very valuable and useful to many a reader. When I am faced with particularly difficult times I will now proceed to tell myself to “cowgirl up” (well…I guess for me I should say “cowboy up”)!

Amberly is the definition of resilience and strength
Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2019
This quote in "True Grit and Grace" sums it up perfectly: "What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." - Henry Stanley Haskins
If you think you can't, think again. This book is beyond inspiring and Amberly is a living demonstration of true resilience and strength. Her story is proof that the power of changing your perception can carry us far down the road of healing. We can focus on what doesn't work, or what does. We can focus on what we can't do, or what we can. In our power to choose how we see our circumstances, lies our freedom.
The fact that Amberly could make a choice to see all of the blessings in her life and approach life in the spirit of gratitude for all that is good, despite living with CRPS and being a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, is incredibly uplifting. I am so inspired. "True Grit and Grace" is so engaging I couldn't put it down. Thank you Amberly, for writing your story so we can all benefit. Next time I'm tempted to quit, I'm going to think of you and will keep going!

This book is a very inspiring book moving from tragedy to success. I always believed success in any walk of life comes with pain, disappointment and some failures. It is how we react to these test and Amberly Lago pushed through some amazing hurdles.
There are segments that really hit home with me. June 14th, the nurses always waking you, is one.
This story lifts me up and pushes me forward when I doubt myself, or have tough moments. Thank you for sharing your story.

The storytelling and pacing is perfect. It kept me engaged and constantly wanting to keep reading more. It took me 3 hours and a half to finish it all the way through in one sitting (exactly how long my flight took). I want to thank Amberly for such an amazing story and a Godsend message that all of us has the power within us to embrace and grow through life with its roller-coaster like journey. You can either accept life that happens to you and play the victim of “why me?”, or you can view this as a journey of becoming a stronger version of yourself and asking “What’s next!?”. I’m a 24 year old male who enjoyed every single moment of this book. I recommend anyone this book who is looking to become inspired by a heartfelt, heart-wrenching story. After finishing the book, it rewarded me realizations of what I am capable of and what I needed to do to become a better person and to become more selfless around the people you love.

Inspirational, well written true story of the ultimate overcomer
Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2021
The author shares her very difficult journey, in a super well written format which leaves you in awe, and inspired. As if it were not enough that she survived a life-threatening motorcycle accident, where are the doctors wanted to amputate her leg, she details how she continues to deal with a lifelong pain condition with grit and grace, meaning with determination and a positive outlook. No one has ever heard of CRPS, complex regional pain syndrome, nor would you want to have any first-hand knowledge of what they call the “suicide disease “. I encourage you to read this book, and apply her techniques for overcoming the worst that life throws at you.

I saw Amberly Lago’s interview with Megan Kelly at a time when I really needed some inspiration. (Amazing how that happens!) I listened attentively to Amberly briefly telling us all a bit about her accident and her willpower and determination to overcome the odds that were all suddenly before her. She mentioned she was told she had developed CRPS through her ordeal. I, as well, was told that I had developed the same disease after my surgery, so I ordered her book, True Grit and Grace - Turning Tragedy into Triumph. Amberly Lago’s tells her story, a series of tragic events that occurred throughout her life and how through it all, she turns it into victories. She is indeed an inspiration and she has so much determination, refusing to give up on herself, which we all need to find within ourselves. Though she doesn’t say much about CRPS, her strength and determination, I hope, is contagious. I am sure I will be rereading over and over when I feel my hope declining and need to rise above that and remind myself to keep pushing myself and not to give up on me. Thank You Amberly! Wishing you many blessings onward....

Amberly Lago's story is one of sheer determination and Texas born grit. Horribly injured in a motorcycle accident, she fought her way back from debilitating pain and physical trauma to reclaim her life and carry on as an inspiration to everyone.
True Grit And Grace is her testament that the human spirit can carry us through the hardest of times and that our fate truly rests in the hand of God. She is living proof that as long as we refuse to give up, neither will the man upstairs. Beautifully written and brutally honest, True Grit And Grace deserves a place on your bookshelf.

Turning Lemons in to Lemonade! Pour yourself a glass of lemonade and read her amazing story
Reviewed in the United States on August 25, 2018
Amberly took the leap of faith when all else seemed dreadful...she found inspiration in herself and family to give her strength to overcome life's lemons. I love the way the book was written with flashback describing her childhood rearing then fast forwarding to the future. It provides a realistic view who this amazing woman is..no different than most of us who have the unknown ability to achieve the impossible. We all have that ability and I thank Amberly for reminding me...I can overcome Tragedy as she did! There are several anecdotes in this story...hence turning lemons into lemonade and a handful of old Texas wisdom I found amusing and appropriate for today.
I highly recommend reading this book!!

The Tiny Glimpse of Hope I So Desperately Needed
Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2018
There are very few books I've read in a day, but Amberly's book was one. As a fellow CRPS warrior and advocate, I wholeheartedly empathize with what Amberly had to go through, especially after getting that life-changing diagnosis myself. As I read, I laughed with her, I cried with and for her, I related to her and her struggle, but more importantly, I was blown away by her determination, resilience, inner strength, and positive attitude. Her story helped to instill in me, for the first time since my own diagnosis, a tiny glimmer of hope. Not hope that there will be a cure or that my pain will diminish (though of course I desperately want those things more than anything); but hope that despite my circumstances, despite yet another struggle I've been given, I will be okay, and hopefully more than okay one day. I will persevere. I will share my story and help others. I will someday write a book. I will look for the many blessings in my life and be thankful. I will take it day-by-day, and try to make the most out of each day. I will not give up and succumb to this beast. So thank you, Amberly, for sharing your story and for helping me see a tiny glimpse of hope at the end of a seemingly very long and dark tunnel ahead. You are truly a warrior!

Author Amberly is a Heroine of the highest category! I read her book in one sitting and couldn't stop till it was finished. My emotions were on a roller coaster ride of EPIC proportions as she told her story of turning a tragedy into triumph. I love the humour weaved into her storytelling. I know now why this woman is one of the strongest people on the planet and it's not just her tragic event, it's the total events from her life that gave her the gift and purpose to inspire us. OMG is an understatement and I said that phrase in my mind over and over again as I read. "What hurts you makes you stronger", "Tomorrow is another day", "Accept the new normal", are just a few phrases I will never forget from this tale. When an author writes so beautifully that you are in the journey along with them, it is hard to forget the story. You must read this book and give it to as many people who need inspiration to keep moving forward with their dreams.
