Mary C. Allen's I AM, is an inspiring narrative that chronicles a young athlete's blind ambitions and follows her poignant journey of self-discovery while risking life and anonymity to become the only one of her kind after a history making medical procedure.I AM presents a coming-of-age story of first-time love, betrayal, friendship, and how helping others can open a path to a new beginning. Despite being painfully shy, skiing prodigy Kaylee Ingebretsen won four Olympic gold medals in alpine skiing at the age of eighteen. At a World Cup race a year later, Kaylee suffers a crash so severe she nearly dies. Stepping in to repair the multiple broken bones in her legs is one of the country's best orthopedic surgeons-Kaylee's father. When her father tells her she'll never race again, Kaylee is convinced her life is over. Faced with months of hospital bedrest, Kaylee struggles to find the person within the athlete as she tries to accept what she calls her-Frankenstein legs. Her life now uncharted, Kaylee battles depression and dark thoughts of ending her life. A traveling nurse by the name of Betty, enters Kaylee's world and a unique bond quickly forms as she guides Kaylee in her new path to transform the lives of amputees around the world.
