    ESPN personality and Paralympics champion Victoria Arlen shares her courageous and miraculous story of recovery after falling into a mysterious vegetative state at age 11 and how she broke free, overcoming the odds and never giving up hope, eventually living a full and inspiring life.When Victoria Arlen was 11 years old, she contracted two rare diseases simultaneously and fell into a mysterious vegetative state. For two years her mind was dark, but in the third year, her mind broke free, and she was able to think clearly and to hear and feel everything - but no one knew.When she was 15 years old, against all odds and medical predictions, she was finally able to communicate through eye blinks, and she gradually regained her ability to speak and eat and move her upper body, but she faced the devastating reality of paralysis from the waist down because of damage to her spine. However, Victoria didn’t lose her strength or steadfast determination, and two years later, she won a gold medal for swimming at the London 2012 Paralympics.In Locked In, Victoria shares her never-before-published story - the pain, the struggle, the fight to live and thrive, and most importantly, the faith that carried her through. Her journey was not easy, but by believing in God’s healing power and forgiveness, she is living proof that, despite seemingly insurmountable odds and challenges, the will to survive and resolve to live can be a force stronger than our worst deterrents.Not many people get a second chance at life like Victoria has, and she made a promise to God that she would make every moment count. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio. ungekürzt.

    Aimee Mullins did more than overcome adversity, she triumphed everything society thought they knew about the limits posed on an amputee. Mullins did not have lower legs since she was an infant. While she was disabled physically, mentally she became stronger. She learned to tap into her internal superpowers and unleash a master greater than the world had ever seen. In the 1996 Paralympics, Mullins broke three world records in track and field. Running for Georgetown University in a NCAA Division One program, she gained the skills to turn heads and drop jaws with her triple record-smashing feat. If that wasn't admirable enough, Mullins went on to become a fashion model, actress, and even found a place on People Magazine's 50 Most Beautiful People list. That's unleashing a master like no other. Mullins saw no limits, she never viewed herself as disabled or incapable, which allowed her to do the impossible.

    If you're likely to buy only one audiobook this year, make sure it's a ripper. Make it one about a boy from the bush who's hell-bent on becoming an elite sportsman. Be sure it's a true story, with ups and downs and plenty of fun times you can relate to. An inspiring insight into triumph over adversity probably won't go astray either. Born without the lower half of his left leg, young Don Elgin never considered himself disabled until he was in high school - and even then, he had to be convinced. His story, of a boy from the bush who battled the odds and finally stepped onto the podium as a medallist at the Sydney Paralympics, is one of absolute inspiration. Driven by an inherited sense of grit, determination and pure guts, Don overcomes an abundance of obstacles to rise to the top of the sporting heap. His life's philosophy tells us that success is not a birthright - it's earned. The one audiobook you should buy this year tells the true story of a boy with a couple of missing body-parts and a very naughty streak that gets him in and out of trouble with his parents, school teachers and the police on his journey to the peak of Paralympic athletic competition. The one audiobook you should definitely buy this year is One Foot on the Podium, by Don Elgin (with Kevin Moloney). Don Elgin: One Foot on the Podium is not just the rags-to-riches story of a poor disabled boy who becomes an elite athlete. It's a tell-all tale laced with his natural humour and just enough larrikinism to make him loveable. The way Don tells his story is the reason he's one of the most entertaining and engaging speakers on the Australian circuit today. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Don Elgin.

    Obwohl Amy Purdy mit 19 Jahren ihre Beine knapp unterhalb der Knie verlor, gab sie nie auf, im Gegenteil: Sie gewann bei den Paralympics eine Medaille im Snowboarden und wurde zweite bei der Tanz-Show "Dancing with the Stars”. Jetzt ist diese starke und bewundernswerte Braut bei Kleinfeld, um ihr Traumkleid zu finden. Doch da ihre Hochzeit bereits in drei Wochen stattfindet, kann Randy nur auf Modelle zurückgreifen, die er auf Lager hat, und das begrenzt die Auswahl sehr. Denn Amy weiß genau, was sie will: eine Robe im Vintage-Stil mit Spitze und langen Ärmeln, die zu ihrer Outdoor-Hochzeit mit Empfang in einer rustikalen Scheune passt.
