My name is Tamara, and I am fighting a serious and rare disease called Microscopic Polyangiitis. I also am a tad bit crazy, but that is another story.

Attitude of Grattitude
Lately people have been so kind to me. Little things, helping me clean the house, picking up and buying food at the vet for my cat, grabbing food and tampons and other stuff I need, and now gifts of coloring books and colors!!!! My life has been rough as of late. My legs are swelling terribly. I am not doing well with pain and fatigue. I injured my knee and came down with an upper respiratory problem. This is bad because I can't take my chemo and other immunosuppressive drugs when I am sick, so the Vasculitis takes over. I have been barely scraping by on the finances. It has been really hard. But these small acts of kindness, they change my life. They make it bearable and give me strength to keep fighting when I want to just give in. I need to remember God puts me where I need to be. Not where I want to be. Sometimes the bad stuff puts me into the middle of events that I can use to change lives. Chronic disabling diseases are hard. But small acts of love, they tame the beast. Like my niece drew during the Fargo ND Violin 4 Vasculitis event, Vasculitis is a vampire, but with love it becomes a little nicer". That rings true. Thank you to the Angels bringing me just a glimmer of happiness and hope. May you receive the blessings threefold.
