Her parachute had opened but got caught in the wind, effectively causing her to fall from 10,000 feet and wipe the entire field with her face. The outcome was 52 broken pieces in her body, with 42 of them in her face.
Her book details the multiple painful surgeries to reconstruct her face, addressing not only her physical wounds but her emotional ones, too. The author shares her tools for facing the hardest moments while emphasizing the importance of self-love.
She outlines the three stages involved in moving past trauma: the abyss, the spark, and the light. Using her personal examples, she illustrates a path for getting past the trauma. While she makes references to God, she includes information in the book about magic, runes, meditation, and hypnotherapy.
While these solutions may not be in my trauma-dealing tool chest, there are readers who will be interested in the author’s methods.
52 Pieces showcases how one woman overcomes physical trauma by tapping into her inner resources.
