Her doctor, Dr. Eric Smith, delivered the happy verdict. “You’ve shown me that you can focus on your nutrition, and because of that, I’m giving you the green light to go back to Pittsburgh and get you scheduled to have your skin removed,” Dr. Smith announced. Tammy, visibly “relieved,” smiled and laughed with joy.
Dr. Smith described the surgery as “kind of that final thing of a reward that I’ve done all this hard work and now I can have this battle scar removed from me.” He even suggested a playful prank on Tammy’s family, though Tammy’s happiness was too great to hide as she told them, “I got approved.”
