Hey Everyone,
Just saw Charee at the hospital, she is about to do a plama thingy (the thing tamara did) and then her last dialysis session, and her operation will start tomorrow around lunch.
She was a little nervous and worried, so she needs alot of positive thoughts and prayers.
I will keep you all up to date with things.
Love
Amand
xxoo
