Dear Friends,

Beatrice Ann here. ...

I feel weird, (not my kind of weird) and guilty for even doing this. Unfortunately, a tick bite has gotten me sick. Therefore, I am reaching out to you all because I have exhausted all of my resources.

I have always been on my own. If I fall, I only have me to help get back up. Some people have mom, dad, or their grandparent to help them. I do not have the luxuries of family, that some people take for granted.

I am ill to the point where easy tasks are not easy and I cannot do. Even the brain fog is horrible. The medicine I need to go back on is like a tranquilizer. My body cannot handle it, but it helps with fighting Lyme.

I have fell two months behind with rent and January’s rent is just around the corner. Normally, I eat healthy but cannot afford to. Especially, fighting this illness I need to eat healthy foods to help me heal. My car insurance payment was returned for insuffient funds.

I appreciate you taking the time to read this. I know times are tough now, and I understand if you cannot help. I wish you the best and thanks for reading. Your tick bit friend Bea.
