A true friend is someone who will stick by you through the good times and the bad. They will lend you a helping hand when you need it. Tessa Truman had a bout of bad luck which showed her how true the friendships she had were.
Truman experienced an ectopic pregnancy. This happens when a fertilized egg gets stuck on the way to the uterus within the fallopian tube.
The ordeal was taxing on Truman, whose fallopian tube burst, leading her to undergo emergency surgery.
On her TikTok account, she shared that the doctor told her that she had lost so much blood that if she had not undergone the surgery, it could have resulted in death.
After processing what the doctor had told her and returning home from the hospital, she expressed gratitude for being alive and overwhelmed by the generosity shown to her by those who love her.
Her neighbors showed her what true friends do in times of need. Because, of course, it wasn’t just the painful operation that made Tessa suffer. She was also experiencing the emotional turmoil that comes with losing a pregnancy.
In the days after her emergency operation, the entire neighborhood came together for her, and Tessa was so overwhelmed by the kindness of her neighbors that she shared their actions on TikTok.
In the TikTok video, you can see her being carried on a stretcher and how people support her when she returns home. One by one, they show up at her door with food, flowers, and other goodies.
This video has touched millions of people worldwide, and we understand why; you can’t help but smile when you see these images. “My village is just the best. I had so many people lining up to give me food, give me flowers, give me treats,” she said in her TikTok.
She mentions that the conversations, texts, and messages made her emotional, and the generosity of the people meant a lot to her.
