Synopsis

What if you knew what to expect—even when life takes an unexpected turn?

Facing amputation can feel overwhelming, uncertain, and isolating. Whether your limb loss is planned or sudden, the questions come fast—and the answers aren’t always easy to find.

Written by Vaughan DeBarr—a bilateral above-knee amputee and paraplegic who has lived every stage of this journey—this book is the guide she wishes she had.

From the first moments of shock and “Why me?” to learning to walk again, rebuilding identity, and creating a new normal, this book walks beside you every step of the way.

Inside, you’ll discover:

  • Honest answers to the questions no one prepares you for
  • Guidance through grief, trauma, and emotional recovery
  • Clear explanations of prosthetics, rehabilitation, and mobility
  • Practical tools to rebuild strength, confidence, and independence
  • Real-world insight from someone who truly understands

This is more than a medical guide.
It’s a roadmap for resilience.

Whether you are an amputee, a caregiver, or a professional, this book will help you move forward—not just surviving, but living fully again.
