January 21, 2024 (Alpine, CA) – Tamara Newton, a Granite Hills High School alumni and daughter of Alpine resident Carlette Anderson, is hospitalized after suffering a brain hemorrhage from a suspected tumor. She is paralyzed on her left side, cannot walk, and requires full-time care.
“The family has been very generous, but now we need some extra help with her expenses and recovery,” Anderson, founder of CPR PROS, told East County Magazine. A GoFundMe account has been setup to help pay for surgery and other medical needs.
The family posted on the site, “There is no doubt that it will be SO much easier for her if you join us in showering her with blessings and support in this time of need. She cannot work at this time, has limited savings and many new expenses. AND all this happened within days of moving from New Jersey to California with her youngest son.”
According to the site, Tamara Newton “is a resilient and loving woman who has made endless sacrifices for her children and to tend to the Earth in a responsible way.” She runs Three Seeds Eco-Education camps in Costa Rica, produces ecological and agricultural workshops on her farm, provides farm-to-table meals, makes chocolate, and is a landscape designer. She has also supported protecting rainforests through sale of hand-crafted items made by Costa Rican women’s groups.
“She has a long road of recovery and life-adjustments ahead of her and could use all the prayers and support she can get from her community,” the family posted on GoFundMe. “She is a survivor of many hardships in her short life, and we know this next chapter will be hard, but she will overcome and shine through with her faith, postivity, and determination, like she always has.”
