Breast Cancer 3-Day 2007 Day One Medical Tent | Dinner | Quiet Time

Medical Tent – After the first days walk and shower, I needed to get my feet fixed up and taped to cover my enormous blisters. They were the hugest blisters I had ever seen. When I arrived there were about 40 people already in the tent and waiting in line. Their injuries ranged from blisters, pulled muscles, twisted ankles, sore knees, heat exhaustion, dehydration and many more injuries. The medical tent was supplied with a good array of emergency medical equipment and experienced doctors and nurses, who were all very supportive and super friendly. Yes, I, Melissa “Paparazzi on the Radio” even took pictures of the nurse draining my blisters as I laid on the table. Yeah…I know it is gross, but I couldn’t resist.
