Tamara Abdalla Puia is a stunning 29 year old model from Indaiatuba, a city in the Brazilian state of São Paulo.

Tamara was born with spina bifida myelomeningocele. This is a condition in which there grows a malformation in the spine during pregnancy that causes damage to various parts of the spinal column, including the spinal cord. As Tamara’s spinal cord was completely severed, she never had any feeling in her legs and has been paralyzed from the waist down her entire life.

As long as everyone around her can remember, Tamara always loved photography. She really liked taking pictures but also loved being in the spotlights herself. Tamara always got lots of compliments on the photos she shared on her social media and slowly but surely she started doing more and more modeling jobs. She now shares lots of her projects on Instagram where she now almost has 3000 followers. If you’re interested, feel free to check out the link down below!

Besides photography and modeling, Tamara often spends time with friends and family, loves a day at the beach and really likes to swim. She also loves dancing, listening to music and regularly goes to concerts.

Tamara really doesn’t mind living with spina bifida. She’s capable of doing whatever she wants and lives completely independent from others. She never really talks about her disability but did remark that —even if she had the choice— she wouldn’t choose to live her life any other way!

Ingrid Nogueira is a stunning, 26 year old singer, composer and model from Foz do Jutaí, a small town in the Brazilian state of Amazonas.

Ingrid has been a wheelchair user for all her life because of Congenital Muscular Dystrophy(CMD). In Ingrid’s case, the condition left the muscles around her pelvis without any strength or function. As a result of this, she has never been able to walk, stand, or sit upright independently. She also has a serious deformity in her spine because her pelvis could never support the weight of her upper body.

Every once in a while, Ingrid’s condition surely comes with some challenges, but Ingrid has an exceptionally positive attitude so she isn’t really bothered by these issues. She does admit though that she has been very lucky that her condition isn’t in it’s progressive state anymore and that her upper her body isn’t affected at all. This allows her to live completely independent of others. She is also very happy that she can use a manual wheelchair, which is something she really likes because it accentuates her independency and makes it a lot easier for her to travel as it is much smaller and lighter than an electric wheelchair.

Ingrid has always been a very outgoing person and a good student who has lots of hobbies. She’s very passionate about music, is a gifted guitar player and a beautiful singer. Besides that, she loves fashion, photography and regularly works as a model. In her spare time, she loves spending time with friends and family, visit concerts and going to the beach.

My humor consists of holding random objects at my dad’s face and telling him “you’re [object] in a mildly aggressive tone and him doing the same.

Example

*while making a salad*

Me: You are "fork”

Dad: You are “lettuce”

Extra points if you can also throw the object at the other person ex.“ You are” napkin"

I’m am almost done with in college :)

I accidentally said I didn’t want kids at a family gathering and now they’re all lecturing me, thinking I give a shit if I’ll never experience the “joy of raising children”

THAT’S THE FUCKING POINT, KAREN.
