I planned on telling you but it snuck up on me and how do you bring that up.

By the time I realized I was dying, I had no energy to reach out to 
people. The symptoms that I noticed could be a whole lot of common 
illnesses.   I got here and got the stomach virus a lot people get when 
they come to Mexico.  Then I got the same nasty cold that put your back 
out in Atlanta two falls ago.  Thereafter, about every three weeks I got 
a cold .  A month later acne and migraines every once in a while.  I was 
depressed and moody but who wouldn't be if they were sick loosing money 
and it was cold and rainy in so called sunny Mexico.  The only reason I 
know approximately when we caught it is by one of my husbands symptoms. 
extremely painful and dry eyes. He got them a few weeks after we got 
here.   Both me and my husband were diagnosed with leptospirosis, but I 
got much sicker then he did. 

I did not get sick beyond the colds, migraines, acne and moodiness until 
August.  I got a little better and then in October over a three week 
period, I lost my hair, my finger nails, nausea, hearing, got dizzy, 
tumors, lost the feeling on my right side, chest pains, liver pain 
difficulty breathing, my right hand turned blue, had tremors, and a lot 
more.  They diagnosed me with lupus and I was about to take the 
treatment, and then this friend of mine who used to be a 
anthropologist.  They catch everything.  He insisted I had a parasite 
called Leptospiros and that it mimics Lupus.  he harassed me everyday, 
until I agreed to talk to the immune system specialist.  Any way I have 
it. If you are diagnosed right, it does not kills you.  luckily, I have 
the number one doctor in the world for it.   I was able to walk and 
leave the house thirty minutes after my first shot.

I did not say anything , because at first I did not know I was sick, and 
then I was afraid I was going to die.   It was extremely consumed it was 
extremely painful. since pain medicine suppresses your immune systems so 
I was not very social. I just started feeling better a few weeks ago.  
you may have noticed I've been posting a lot more.  How do you bring up 
something sooooo bizarre.  i think the Astronaut, Wookie, Anna Nicole, 
gabor stories gave me the strength to come out with my bizarre.  Just 
kidding.   I'm sorry, we had stopped talking and I do not like to call 
people just when things are going bad

So to be even more bizarre, I'm probably going to stay in Mexico for two 
more years, but we re leaving  Xalapa AKA Seattle South.
