- **Event Name**: Tammy Ezell Benefit—Chili/Beans/Cornbread 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 25 Feb, 2026 at 11:00 am – Wed, 25 Feb, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Tammy’s Fight

Tammy was diagnosed with Stage III ovarian cancer in March 2025. By the time of diagnosis, the cancer had already metastasized into her abdominal wall and throughout her abdomen. She began chemotherapy shortly thereafter.

In June 2025, Tammy underwent surgery with the hope of removing her ovaries, performing a complete hysterectomy, and possibly addressing issues with her bowel. However, once surgeons opened her abdomen, they discovered that the cancer had completely covered her stomach and bowels. Operating would have required removing her stomach and bowels, leaving Tammy without any quality of life. The heartbreaking decision was made to do nothing surgically and continue chemotherapy instead.

On December 31, 2025, Tammy returned to surgery once again. The plan was to perform a hysterectomy, remove her ovaries and spleen, complete a bowel resection, and possibly remove portions of her stomach and liver. Tragically, once again, surgeons found that the cancer completely covered her small bowel and much of her lower large bowel. Once again, surgery was not an option, as it would have taken away any chance at quality of life.

Beginning this coming Thursday, Tammy will start a new chemotherapy regimen aimed at fighting this platinum-resistant cancer in her abdomen.

Doctors have explained that this cancer is especially difficult to detect on imaging because it does not form large tumors. Instead, it spreads like a thin, cake-like wall that coats and covers everything inside.

Tammy continues to fight with strength, courage, and grace. This benefit is being held to help support her and her family as they walk this difficult road together. Any support, whether through donations, sharing this post, or keeping Tammy in your prayers, means more than words can express.

Thank you for standing with Tammy.
