This is a true story of a small girl born in a home where she experiences one disaster after another. Growing up in a family of five children and three adults, one of which is her mother's lover, she suffers third degree burns on her upper body, boil infections, a dog bite to the jugular vein, and a severed toe before she was five years old. However, she perseveres and develops an "I can do anything" attitude which results in over achieving every task she undertakes.
