But for Safyre Terry, all she ever wants is to receive Christmas cards that she will hang on her Christmas tree.
Safyre lost her entire family—parents and siblings—in an arson attack. Because of the unfortunate event, she received burns on 75 percent of her body. She managed to survive because of her heroic father who protected her with his body from the fire.

A month after the incident, she lost her left foot and right hand. She is scheduled to undergo another operation on January 5. She is now under her aunt’s supervision.
