Description
A childhood tragedy cost her more than she could've imagined, but it also gave a gift far worth more than she could've hoped for...
In one of the most inspirational stories about God’s grace, Theresa holds nothing back as she retraces her traumatic childhood in the countryside of North Carolina in one of the most inspiring autobiographies ever written.
Between unstable, alcoholic parents and the ever-present threat of emotional and physical neglect, Theresa never had the childhood every adult wished they could recall. After a horrible fire incident at the age of four, Theresa is left unrecognizably scarred for life. She is left to deal with pain, despair and hopelessness on a level that most people would have difficulty overcoming.
Through the Fire is not just another personal memoir. Instead, it is considered by many one of the best books on childhood trauma. Her journey of getting over childhood trauma will touch your heart on many levels.
Unabashed, deeply personal, and thoroughly captivating, Through the Fire is a touching story of pain, despair, courage, hope and redemption. It is both heartbreaking and inspiring at the same time. Theresa’s telling of her childhood healing journey of walking through the fire is a story of pain, healing and forgiveness.
Written to inspire and to bring hope to many, it is known as one of the most inspirational stories for young women to read. Her story of courage and hope will carry you through every emotion and leave you feeling nothing but inspired.

OMGosh!
What an amazing story! I couldn't put it down until I was done. What this brave little girl went through had to have been horrific! Both physically and emotionally.
A must read if I can say that without sounding like a salesman. Everyone should read this book. It's powerful!!!,
The Expanded Edition of Ms. Vandermeer was an excellent read and a blessing!
This author shares her life's experiences with such a genuine openness .
I found myself in tears while reading her TRUE story of hardships and disappointments all the while knowing God brought her to the point she could open her heart to share her story with us. Her words to me when I bought this book were "
"I hope you get a blessing from this"". I did. I give this book 5 stars because there is no 10 star option., This new expanded version is a MUST read!
The first version was excellent but this expanded version goes deeper into Theresa's life experiences. It answers questions I had and gives a deeper view of her relationships.
This is a story of hurt and tragedy but of strength, courage, love and faith. It is a story of how relationships affect our lives.
You won't want to put it down until you have read the whole story!!"

This is heartbreaking and uplifting in equal parts. I shed a tear, both at the pain and suffering of Theresa, but also because of her immense strength. Not an easy read, by any means, but a worthwhile one.
Christine C, Reviewer
Nothing short of a very inspirational story of Theresa's journey through an extraordinary life. She doesn't hold back on her trials and tribulations. What is amazing to me is that through all of this she never truly lost faith. It is a very fast read as I finished it one day because it is hard to put down. Don't be fooled - it is not a sad story - Theresa is not looking for anyone's pity. She is looking to encourage and inspire others and she achieves it.

This book was a heart wrenching story of hope and loss and finding how to love again. This woman went through so much loss and learned how to find hope through the bad. I really felt for this woman. It was a very good coming to God type of book.
Risse T, Reviewer
Thank you to the author for sharing the most intimate feelings of her childhood and adulthood. It’s heartbreaking and one of the saddest stories I’ve read in awhile. I cannot imagine being 4 years old how scared and traumatizing it must be. Through perseverance, determination, she’s overcome so much. Thank you to the publisher, the author, and NetGalley for an ebook ARC. This is my honest review.

Through the Fire
About a Four Year Old Girl Maliciously Burned in a House Fire
by Theresa A. Vandermeer
I would highly recommend this book because it is based on a persons life story of pain, suffering, emotions, and strength. Depression and living a life of deformation were two of the main topics of the person who wrote this story. In my opinion, a person should not be judged nor criticized due to how they appear. This is a very moving story that makes one realize being different does not make us any different.
