At the age of 19, I became a massage therapist (治疗师).For the first time in my life, I felt free, independent and completely in control of my life.That is, until my life took a detour (绕行).I was diagnosed with bacterial meningitis (细菌性脑膜炎).Over the course of two months, I lost my spleen (脾), my kidneys, and both of my legs below the knees.
One day, I went home.I crawled into bed and this is what my life looked like for the next few months: me passed out, escaping from reality, with my legs resting by my side.I was completely physically and emotionally broken.But I knew that in order to move forward, I had to let go of the old Amy and learn to embrace the new Amy.And that is when I began to realize that I didn't have to be small any more.I could be as tall as I wanted or as short as I wanted depending on whom I was dating.And if I snowboard again, my feet aren't going to get cold.And the best of all, I thought, I can make my feet the size of all the shoes that are on the sales shelf.And I did!
I started snowboarding.Then I went back to work.And then I cofounded a nonprofit organization for physical disabilities so that they could get involved in action sports.And just this past February, I won two World Cup gold medals, making me the highestranked adaptive female snowboarder in the world.
Eleven years ago, when I lost my legs, I had no idea what to expect.But if you ask me today, if I would ever want to change my situation, I would have to say no, because my legs haven't disabled me.They've forced me to rely on my imagination and to believe in possibilities, and that's why I believe that our imaginations can be used as tools for breaking through borders, because in our minds, we can do anything and we can be anything.It's belief in those dreams and facing our fears directly that allow us to live our lives beyond our limits.
