About

Hi, I’m Veronica Sindelar. I grew up in Tucson, Arizona, and
this book is the story of my journey through hardship, survival,
and healing. Writing it wasn’t easy—it meant reopening old
wounds and facing the little girl I once was. But it was also
necessary, because I believe that telling our stories is how we
begin to heal.
This memoir isn’t just for me. It’s for my siblings, who walked
through so much of this life with me. It’s for anyone who has
ever felt unseen, unloved, or left behind. And it’s for that little
girl in the green dress—who didn’t know it back then, but who
was never truly alone.
Today, I’m still learning, still healing, still growing. But I’ve
found strength I didn’t know I had. My hope is that when you
close this book, you walk away knowing that your story matters
too. You are not broken, and you are not alone.
