Pamela is a 35-year-old accounting assistant living in Clearwater, Florida. She loves Italian food, soap operas, and short walks on the beach. But you know what she doesn’t love? Going to the doctor and getting a shot. That’s why we couldn’t be more proud of this little lady for marching into her gynecologist’s office this morning and stoically receiving an HPV vaccination.

So the next time you find yourself in the doctor's office, staring down the long arm of a shot, remember these strong women. They certainly set the bar high.
