Tamara Update

This is the face of cancer?...She is beautiful inside&out!

This is round 3 of Tamara's chemo! She is having to go once a week right now. Every Tuesday she gears up for a full day in this chair...and has the best attitude ever about it! My mom went with her the first time, I went the second time&my mom is there this 3rd time! They have little TV's set up next to the chairs so each patient has their own. They also have a selection of movies to pick from and fun reading magazines. The nurses are so incredibly nice&loving. Last time we were there a man in the cubicle next to Tamara told her having cancer felt like a "fraternity". And as Tamara pointed out...cancer does not discriminate. There were people there from all backgrounds-all ages-all races. So Tamara sits in that seat for 7 hours and has chemo pumped into her body. But she has taken down 3 Chemo sessions!!!! She is exhausted the rest of the day&the day after. She gets a little sick and has night sweats...but she is happy&stays in good spirits constantly! She is Tamara ;)
