The Girl Who Fell From The Sky by Emma Carey
“𝕃𝕖𝕒𝕧𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝕒𝕝𝕨𝕒𝕪𝕤 𝕤𝕖𝕖𝕞𝕤 𝕚𝕞𝕡𝕠𝕤𝕤𝕚𝕓𝕝𝕖 𝕦𝕟𝕥𝕚𝕝 𝕪𝕠𝕦 𝕝𝕖𝕒𝕧𝕖, 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕥𝕙𝕖𝕟 𝕪𝕠𝕦 𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕝𝕚𝕤𝕖 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕒𝕟𝕥𝕚𝕔𝕚𝕡𝕒𝕥𝕚𝕠𝕟 𝕚𝕤 𝕠𝕗𝕥𝕖𝕟 𝕞𝕦𝕔𝕙 𝕨𝕠𝕣𝕤𝕖 𝕥𝕙𝕒𝕟 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕝𝕚𝕥𝕪”.
Thoughts: The Girl Who Fell From The Sky is a memoir by Emma Carey, who had a skydiving accident that left her paraplegic. This memoir was both heartbreaking and inspiring. I have been following Emma on social media for many years and I am so glad I finally read her memoir. This memoir was heartbreaking and inspiring. Emma is so strong and such an inspiration. This book made me feel thankful for small things and reminded me not to take things for granted. This is a must-read for everyone.
Synopsis: From a terrible accident that left her paraplegic, Emma Carey has become an inspiration for hundreds of thousands online to live life to the fullest and remind us that if we can, we must. There on that helicopter, somewhere over Switzerland on a Sunday in June, came the first tiny whisper. A voice that would carry me for years to come. 'I'm going to be ok. There's still joy here.' When Emma Carey was twenty, she fell from 14,000 feet and survived. In The Girl Who Fell From the SkyEmma tells us the inspirational story of how, through one of her greatest tragedies, she found her truest self. From waking in the hospital a paraplegic to learning how to use her legs again, through the six-year long court case and now being finally free to make the most of her life, Emma teaches us the importance of courage and resilience. This heartfelt book is more than a memoir, it's a call to action that reminds us not to take our lives and abilities for granted - to live every day like it could be our last.

An incredible story of someone who has gone through the unthinkable. It is also written in an uplifting and positive tone. A great book for the advocacy of people with disability to enable others to have an understanding of the resources required to live. Her strength and tenacity is admirable.
