I’ve been teaching kids from three of the indigenous tribes, here in the Southern part of Costa Rica, near the Panamanian border for the last two years.
I started getting really sick over a year ago. I’ve been sick continuously since then.
Then my cat got sick, and then he disappeared. I am entering the healthcare facility in my town. The moment I reached the United States we had well water where I lived about 2 miles into the trees in the national forest here and for over a year now I get a systematic illness that starts with larva of a little flea that is in my skin and it’s not bedbugs. it is in my skin always and so they grow in my skin and it burns and then I have bugs that are in my skin and then I killed them with a special soap and some cream. I used everything that if possible to you have used down here in the last year and then about a month after it starts and they’re in my skin the sites where the exoskeletons are in my skin. I guess allowing a staff infection so I get that and then I go to the doctor or I go to a natural doctor. I’ve gone to everyone down here. Everything works, and it goes away and then it comes back about a month later as I’m writing this I feel a new crop of babies so I can’t see them, but I can feel them in my skin and I can post updates as they’re able to be seen so when I get back to the state, I’m going right into the doctors because I need some serious medicine to kill. Whatever is in me. I’ve also lost a lot of weight
Then my beloved dog, and only real family suddenly got sick and died a week ago in my arms
I loaned money to a person who it’s not paying me back now. And I leave the jungle Thursday the 18th and fly out of San Jose the 25th.
The money is going to go towards number one I need a new passport. My passport is damaged. It is what I can only describe as Massey that is $130 plus taxis back-and-forth from the Embassy to order it and then pick it up the next day.
I have the hotel and paid for already. It’s for Food for me for seven days in San Jose two meals a day. I get free breakfast at my hotel.
And it is to cover travel expenses from the jungle to the city and to buy some Dunkin’ Donuts at the Orlando airport after I clear customs it’s first on my list of foods I need to eat
I just wanna go home.
I feel so foolish for trusting this friend, and now I’m in a very bad situation which just seems to keep compounding.
Any donations will help. I just want to get home.
