Joy continued to work while going through chemotherapy and radiation. She worked each day and NEVER called out. She wore a bandana on her head or a wig when she lost her hair. Her family members and her residents were her first priority. She said that caring for and loving the residents is what kept her going during the difficult months of battling cancer treatment. Joy Pensala truly exemplifies a ROCK STAR caregiver!
