Описание: When above-the-knee amputeeswalk, we generate seven to nine times the force of our body weight right into the point where the prosthesis meets our residual leg. For me, that's almost 1,500 pounds slamming into that socket.
For any amputee, learning to walk with a prosthetic leg is a painful, grueling ordeal. Soon after army medic Kortney Clemons, who lost his right leg to a roadside bomb in Baghdad, began the process, he had more than walking in mind. He wanted to run, and run fast. Barely three years after the awful attack that changed his life forever, he aimed to join the elite corps of international athletes vying for gold in the 2008 Paralympics in Beijing. His account of his recovery from this catastrophic wound and his drive to become the first Iraq veteran to win Paralympic gold is one of the most remarkable, inspiring, and compelling stories in the history of sports.

Описание:

They say being a teenager is one of the most challenging stages in your life, after all that has happened, I'd have to agree. Adjusting to one new school can be hard, but this is my third school this year, and my classmates aren't exactly the type of people you would expect. High School is full of challenges, new friends, budding romances, and social rivalry. Let's face it, every girl someday dreams of being the Queen Bee, but what do you do when it's not just Prom you're competing for anymore and your life's on the line?

Come along for a journey of magic, mayhem, and murder as we delve into worlds hidden in plain sight. Will Adella choose to become the warm breath of summer or a mid-winter's sigh? When your world is shifting, where will your alliances lie?
