The loss of a loved one, a painful divorce, or
a serious physical injury---we must all, at one point, face
tragedy---unavoidable moments that divide our lives into
“before” and “after.” How do we muscle our way through tough
times and emerge stronger, wiser---even grateful for our
struggle? In 1984, author Jerry White lost his leg---and
almost his life---in a landmine accident. He has endured the
pain of loss and the challenge of rebuilding. As cofounder
of Survivors Corps, White has interviewed thousands of
victims of tragedy. With this book, he shares what he has
learned.
White outlines a very specific
five-step program to coping with disaster; to achieving
strength and hope; and to turning tragedy into triumph. In
their own words, his survivor friends and colleagues share
their stories. It's a group that includes the well
known, like Lance Armstrong, Nelson Mandela, and the late
Princess Diana, and also everyday survivors. Through their
stories and the author's words, the book takes readers
step-by-step through the process of not only surviving
tragedy and victimhood, but going on to thrive.
