A woman who put feeling unwell down to just being tired from her busy life, found herself in an intensive care unit and on a life support machine earlier this year. Tara Joanna Hamer lived a very active lifestyle, going to the gym, working for the NHS and competing in beauty pageants.
And when she began feeling unwell, sleeping more than usual, finding ulcers in her mouth and bruises on her body, she didn't think much of it - until she collapsed on November 22, 2022. Tara, from Hengoed, Caerphilly, was taken to the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff, where she would spend the next month in intensive care on a life support machine.
Wales Online reports that the former Miss Galaxy Wales suffered from multiple organ failure, pancreatitis, double pneumonia and sepsis. Tara said: "999 was called as I collapsed and I was blue lighted to the Heath hospital.
