Gotta Have Faye-th "Faye's Fight" Faye Adcox

Faye Adcox was fearless and extremely active. She'd rappelled down a seventeen-story building. She ran 5Ks. She taught karate and kickboxing. Then-an accident robbed Faye of her security, stability, and mobility. It almost took her life.



After the icy crash on a wintry road, Faye spent five days in a coma-and when she awoke, the doctors had bad news. Faye had survived the near-fatal accident, but her pelvis was broken in nine different places, her stomach and bladder were punctured, and her spleen was destroyed. Her physical fitness had helped her body survive the trauma, but the doctors weren't sure if she would ever walk again.



The debilitating and soul-crushing physical challenges weren't the only things Faye would have to endure, however, as PTSD also became a serious issue. By night, she would sleeplessly relive the accident over and over in her mind. By day, she would battle the unrelenting difficulties of adjusting to her new reality.



Only through her own tenacity and the support of her family was Faye able to find the strength to carry on. In this new memoir, Faye recounts her many struggles-providing inspiration and hope in the way she confronted each one.
