Tragic Incident in Girl's Life Wasn't a Hindrance to Not Attend Prom

The school leavers' ball - or prom, as they are increasingly called - is one of the landmark events in a teenage girl's life, marking the end of years of hard work.

It has become a crucial rite of passage for teenagers everywhere. But for 16-year-old Terri Calvesbert her school prom was even more significant than most.

Terri's life was forever changed in a devastating fire at her home in Ipswich, Suffolk, when she was a two-year-old baby. She was left with no hair, lips, nose or fingers, and just one foot. Wrapped head to toe in bandages, she had to learn to walk all over again.


Despite the fateful encounter, Terri didn't allow the tribulation to hinder her on living her life as she intended.

She arrived in All Manor of Events at Henly, sending her of in style with a chauffeur-driven Rolls-Royce. Cheers were heard as soon as she was seen by schoolmates and the faculties dressed in red with a captivating glimmer of her smile.

It certainly is memorable for a young woman to attend prom before leaving school, but for Terri, it wasn't just memorable, it was special.
