All of Tina’s medical and everyday needs

Hello all ,

first, thank you for taking time to read this . I know many of you will know me, but for those who don’t my name is Brandi, Tina’s daughter .

These last few weeks have been very difficult for my family . My mom has been Diagnosed with Colon cancer . The cancer has also spread to her liver . We are still currently waiting on some results and answers .

Some of you may know my mom as a part of the ‘Tina & Julie big-haired badass’ of the 80s’ duo , some of you may know her from her TikTok tin can flower fame, and some may know her as the lunch lady whom the kids adore.

However you know my mom , you know she’s a fighter & a very kind hearted person. Already going through thyroid cancer a few years ago , a hysterectomy , diverticulitis and still moving forward . We’ve already had a lot of people reach out and help out anyway they can and we all appreciate that more than you’ll ever know .

it’s hard to ever ask for any help , especially around the holiday season . I know my family would be forever grateful for any kind of help offered on this rough journey of “kicking cancers ass” as my mom would say . We have a long road ahead of us , but we will get through it all with all the support from everyone who knows her .

happy holidays & thanks again for any help .

*Update* 12/22/22

Thanks again everyone ! Round 2 of chemo today. Hoping for some good news !

*UPDATE* 1/18/22 For everyone whom has been following this still , here is the most updated info we have : Tina goes in for her FOURTH round of chemo on 1/24/22 . 

 We won’t know if the chemo is completely working until her 6th infusion . With that being said , there have been some improvements. She’s been able to eat most foods again without a lot of issue , so we are hoping that’s a sign the mass is shrinking .

 A couple days after treatments are pretty tough on her . Extreme fatigue , tingling hands/fingers , temperature sensitive , etc . These were told to us this is normal with chemo treatments . She seems to be bouncing back quicker after than she was before .

 Takes a couple days vs. a few days . These donations have helped out more than we can even express . 

Thank you all again. I will do my best to keep things updated as we receive more information , as time goes on .
