Dear friends,
Hope your day was great. My colleague Prisciallah and I spent the whole of today (Friday, October 2) making sure Tare and her mum settle in for preparations for the operation. Everything has gone on according to plan, and we encountered no problems at all. So many calls came to Mai Tare, and thank you all for calling – do keep the calls coming. Tare has been reading all emails and pay pal statements that you sent to her. One would think in this condition Tare cannot read, write, walk or do anything, but she feeds herself, reads, watches TV, and when I said are you okay emailing she nodded her head up and down and that was a clear yes. To be honest I am one woman just moved at a personal level by Tare, and it feels so different when you see her on photo and face to face. I must say Tare`s mum is a strong woman, and she is a woman who smiles all the way, very sociable. The counseling degree she is doing with ZOU has helped her to cope. She appeals to anyone with reading materials on counseling to share with her later because self counseling is what I have noticed is happening with her right now. She felt pain to see Tare in this state, and it looks like she has taken in pain to be part of her. Tomorrow the doctor has called us to London for pre OP checks, and so if we could call Mai Tare after 2pm that would be great because that would give her some space to speak to doctors. Today she received phone calls every ten minutes. Otherwise we have now started on the road to treatment. I have attached some photos at the Airport and at the Lodge where Tare and her mum have found quiet, and there they are taking some good rest.
Bye for now.
Regards
