Amber’s lp this year is really great, I’m so sorry about what happened at nationals. Maybe , with the 7th place finish, she’ll still get Internationals or even a GP next season?

I couldn’t find anything on Amber’s Instagram or Twitter indicating that she’s traveling to champs camp. Maybe she’s not going after all? Maybe she is going but was told not to say anything until the team photo is released?

Today's Instagram post from @the.cains strongly implies that Amber will be going to Champs Camp (along with Ashley and Timothy).

It’s still not confirmed which lady got the Skate America host spot!!! I’m dying over this!!!!

Maybe the federation won’t decide until each girl (Amber, Starr, and Megan) has appeared on the Challenger Series? To see how well prepared they are.

So excited to see Amber do so well and podium at the US Classic! One of the highlights for me this weekend. :luv17:

Love the fight and the tenacity she has!

I just want to say Amber is about to have a hell of a year! A silver at nationals pretty much guaranties her a spot at the NBC Olympic hopeful press event for one example. She really b!itch slapped herself on to the radar.

I hope she enjoys the ride and thrives.

C’mon, I dare someone, anyone, to tell me that you aren’t pulling for her.

The, THE, feel good story of US Nationals. In a perfect world, she gets rewarded with a Worlds spot. But we know the world isn’t perfect......

Don't know if anyone else read this article that Ambers mom just posted. Makes sense as to why Amber is slowly improving now! Recovering from mental health struggles, dealing with coming out and finding out who she is, then being diagnosed with Adult ADHD and finding out how to adjust through that. Each of these requires time to overcome! Amber had to deal with all 3 of these issues overlapping each other! That explains why she now is starting to compete and perform close to her abilities! Overcoming all of these adversities has made her so strong! It's easy to compete and perform well when things are all going your way. This makes all of her accomplishments much bigger of a deal! Amber should be a spokesperson for overcoming adversities!
