Overcoming Adversity

Staff Sgt. Chantel Thibeaux, Joint Base-Fort Sam Houston, Texas, dental assistant instructor, shares a laugh with her mother Carla while watching a video on her phone. As Thibeaux and her mother waited for doctors to perform checks prior to double mastectomy surgery, Carla kept her daughter in good spirits with laughs and loving reminders.
