Tammy Doe: A Short Story
If you met Tammy Doe today, you’d never know that barely a year ago she was a painfully shy young woman that rarely left her bedroom much less her home. When she first entered the Post program, Tammy was unable to make eye contact, or hold a conversation. Making friends was all but impossible due to her shyness, and severe nervousness. Fast forward one year, and with the assistance of Post CARES and the Waiver program, Tammy is now a social butterfly; fully capable of holding her own in any conversation and making new friends every day. You’ll see Tammy at all the Post events, attending her many friends birthday celebrations and even throwing her own parties! Tammy, you’ve come so far, and we’re so incredibly proud of

    After Big Sur and spending the night in Pacifica we went further north to San Francisco. When we spent the night in Pacifica our hotel was right near the ocean.

    Language has played a big role in making my life successful. As senior year was ending I had a major life changing decision.

Most people never take the chance, either because they're too scared, or they don't recognize it when it spits on their shoes." that’s when I decide…
