""The last thing I remember is the girls playing with my hair.
It is curled on my forehead and they stroke it gently while I fall
asleep. I wake up suddenly, my body wracked with hot piercing pain.
I'm in a car that's hurtling through the night, and all around me
is darkness. I'm lying across someone's knees. The pain intensifies
and shoots hot, raking talons down my body as I hear hideous
screaming. It takes a moment before I realize I'm the one
screaming, then I drop back into the deep depths of
blackness.""

Dave Hammer is only five years old when tragedy strikes in the
middle of the night on a May long weekend. Horribly burned in a
fire, Dave struggles to survive. This is the gripping autobiography
of a family s love, and one little boy s determination to live,
setting the stage for an epic battle for life. You will experience
the highs and lows with Dave as you journey through a story filled
with inspiration and hope. In Dave Hammer s memoir, we journey with
a young boy wrestling with death, overcoming infections, mastering
button holes, arriving eventually to the inner-workings of a man,
superficially disfigured, yet solicitous, living with measured
humour and seasoned grace. It is a story of hope that surprises and
inspires; a testimony to the strength God offers in our supreme
weakness. Christina Crook This book was a fantastic read. It
brought me to laughter and to tears as I read Dave Hammer s
light-hearted yet dramatic memoirs. More importantly, it touched my
heart deeply and encouraged me just at a time when I really needed
encouragement. If you think you will find a tragic story in these
pages, you will be surprised that, on the contrary, this book is
filled with hope and triumphant victories. Janet Hazlett
