Hi Zoe,

I am so sorry you are going through all this suffering. I am praying
for you with all that I have that you get better. If you want to email
me off list for any reason, you can email me at:

portia.sc...@gmail.com

Really hoping you get well soon, and return to us safe, sound, and happy.

Never stop fighting, keep praying for healing someway, somehow. Where
there's a will, there's a way.

Blessed be.

Sincerely,

 and fall.
 In August I noticed 2 mosquito bites on my elbow and 2 on my inner left
 thigh. The bites were very itchy just like normal mosquito bites, so I
 didn't think anything of it. I also noticed my nails were black

 I thought it was dirt from the garden, to spite that I was showering
 every

Oh Zoe,

I will put you on my prayer list.

How devastating!!!

How completely horrendous for you and your husband!

Thank you for sharing all this and thank you moderators for allowing
her to post this!!!

Even though I don't know you, as I said, you're on my prayer list now.

If I offended anyone in anyway, or gave anyone a hard time please forgive me.
Here's my unbelievable story.
Last August I was doing a lot of gardening mostly weeding to be honest. I was 
on my hands and knees from morning to night pulling weeds and keeping my 
property clean. I am grateful to the good Lord for blessing me to have such a 
lovely property but it's old and no one ever took care of the garden. The 
result is weeds on top of my weeds. Chemicals are forbidden here in Canada, and 
I haven't been able to find an affordable solution, so I'm left with fighting 
weeds on a daily bases. I am a sun lover and adore summer, last summer was the 
first time in my life that I couldn't wait for summer to be over. I was 
exhausted and I have nothing to remember for my 2016 summer except pulling 
weeds all most every day for the whole entire spring, summer, and fall.
In August I noticed 2 mosquito bites on my elbow and 2 on my inner left thigh. 
The bites were very itchy just like normal mosquito bites, so I didn't think 
anything of it. I also noticed my nails were black underneath.
I thought it was dirt from the garden, to spite that I was showering every 
single day and cleaning my nails, the next morning they would be filthy again. 
Again I thought it strange but I justified it in my head as to much gardening. 
In August my husband and I visited a few local restaurants and spent two nights 
in a motel in north Ontario for a weekend away.
I wanted to try my hand at building a small business doing something I love so 
I decided to start making my own bracelets and selling them online. I have 
always loved costume jewellery and to spite my vision problems, I have been 
taught that there is nothing I can't do. My mother always said "try and if you 
fail, oh well, life goes on. Try different things until you find something you 
are good at and you love doing." So I talked to my mom and husband and they 
both backed me as they always do. My mother who adores me spent over six 
thousand dollars to buy my supplies, and encouraged me on a daily bases. My 
husband turned half of my computer room into a work space with special 
lighting, magnifying contraptions, shelving, etc. My husband and mom bought me 
bins with dividers and I spent months sorting beads and other supplies by 
color, size, and type. I got help from someone on one of these mailing lists 
and he helped me to create labels to label all these bins. Everything was going 
great, or so I thought.
I spent hours teaching myself how to make these beautiful bracelets, I finally 
got the hang of it after much trial and error and I was ready to go.

more supplies to host a launching party with food, drinks, and gifts for my

If I offended anyone in anyway, or gave anyone a hard time please forgive
me.
Here's my unbelievable story.
Last August I was doing a lot of gardening mostly weeding to be honest. I
was on my hands and knees from morning to night pulling weeds and keeping 
my
property clean. I am grateful to the good Lord for blessing me to have 
such
a lovely property but it's old and no one ever took care of the garden. 
The
result is weeds on top of my weeds. Chemicals are forbidden here in 
Canada,

and I haven't been able to find an affordable solution, so I'm left with
fighting weeds on a daily bases. I am a sun lover and adore summer, last
summer was the first time in my life that I couldn't wait for summer to be
over. I was exhausted and I have nothing to remember for my 2016 summer
except pulling weeds all most every day for the whole entire spring, 
summer,

and fall.
In August I noticed 2 mosquito bites on my elbow and 2 on my inner left
thigh. The bites were very itchy just like normal mosquito bites, so I
didn't think anything of it. I also noticed my nails were black 
underneath.

I thought it was dirt from the garden, to spite that I was showering every
single day and cleaning my nails, the next morning they would be filthy
again. Again I thought it strange but I justified it in my head as to much
gardening. In August my husband and I visited a few local restaurants and
spent two nights in a motel in north Ontario for a weekend away.
I wanted to try my hand at building a small business doing something I 
love

so I decided to start making my own bracelets and selling them online. I
have always loved costume jewellery and to spite my vision problems, I 
have
been taught that there is nothing I can't do. My mother always said "try 
and

if you fail, oh well, life goes on. Try different things until you find
something you are good at and you love doing." So I talked to my mom and
husband and they both backed me as they always do. My mother who adores me
spent over six thousand dollars to buy my supplies, and encouraged me on a
daily bases. My husband turned half of my computer room into a work space
with special lighting, magnifying contraptions, shelving, etc. My husband
and mom bought me bins with dividers and I spent months sorting beads and
other supplies by color, size, and type. I got help from someone on one of
these mailing lists and he helped me to create labels to label all these
bins. Everything was going great, or so I thought.
I spent hours teaching myself how to make these beautiful bracelets, I

prayers and reason for unsubscribing soon

Hi my fellow elf's and Mrs. Clause. Hope you are all doing ok. Unfortunately
I have no choice, I have to unsubscribe from all the email groups I belong
to. I haven't been able to check email and be online for a long time and it
seems I will be out of things for much longer. When I turned on my laptop
this morning I had over fifteen thousand emails waiting for me. Given my
situation I just can't keep up anymore. I pray that one day I recover and
are able to join my favourite groups again.  My family is against me telling
people what's wrong but I feel in writing this email I'm also helping myself
to come to grips with my illness. I will remain subscribed a few more days
so that I may read your thoughts in hopes that your words might help me to
continue to fight this awful illness.
Again I'm sorry for the off topic post and I hope the moderators can find it
in their hearts to forgive me, and if one day I recover I hope they will
remember me and let me back in to my favourite mailing groups.
Before I tell you all my story, I would like to thank each and every one of
you for either your help on various topics, or your individual private help
through the phone or private email, or your messages of getting to know me,
or your words of encouragement when it came to the mac, jaws, NVDA, windows
10, household tips, cooking instructions, prayers, and harmless chit chat.
If I offended anyone in anyway, or gave anyone a hard time please forgive
me.
Here's my unbelievable story.
Last August I was doing a lot of gardening mostly weeding to be honest. I
was on my hands and knees from morning to night pulling weeds and keeping my
property clean. I am grateful to the good Lord for blessing me to have such
a lovely property but it's old and no one ever took care of the garden. The
result is weeds on top of my weeds. Chemicals are forbidden here in Canada,
and I haven't been able to find an affordable solution, so I'm left with
fighting weeds on a daily bases. I am a sun lover and adore summer, last
summer was the first time in my life that I couldn't wait for summer to be
over. I was exhausted and I have nothing to remember for my 2016 summer
except pulling weeds all most every day for the whole entire spring, summer,
and fall.
In August I noticed 2 mosquito bites on my elbow and 2 on my inner left
thigh. The bites were very itchy just like normal mosquito bites, so I
didn't think anything of it. I also noticed my nails were black underneath.
I thought it was dirt from the garden, to spite that I was showering every
single day and cleaning my nails, the next morning they would be filthy
again. Again I thought it strange but I justified it in my head as to much
gardening. In August my husband and I visited a few local restaurants and
spent two nights in a motel in north Ontario for a weekend away.
I wanted to try my hand at building a small business doing something I love
so I decided to start making my own bracelets and selling them online. I
have always loved costume jewellery and to spite my vision problems, I have
been taught that there is nothing I can't do. My mother always said "try and
if you fail, oh well, life goes on. Try different things until you find
something you are good at and you love doing." So I talked to my mom and
husband and they both backed me as they always do. My mother who adores me
spent over six thousand dollars to buy my supplies, and encouraged me on a
daily bases. My husband turned half of my computer room into a work space
with special lighting, magnifying contraptions, shelving, etc. My husband
and mom bought me bins with dividers and I spent months sorting beads and
other supplies by color, size, and type. I got help from someone on one of
these mailing lists and he helped me to create labels to label all these
bins. Everything was going great, or so I thought.
I spent hours teaching myself how to make these beautiful bracelets, I
finally got the hang of it after much trial and error and I was ready to go.
I registered on etsy.com and opened up a Facebook small business page. I
bought more supplies to host a launching party with food, drinks, and gifts
for my guests to introduce them to my creations and my new business. While
all this was happening, I noticed in October that the mosquito bites were
not going away. They had become scabby and even more itchier.
I showed my mom and she justified it just like I had done in my mind. Due to
my type two diabetes they were taking a long time to heal as many things do
when you have diabetes.
At the beginning of November as some of you already know, I started to have
problems with my right eye. Long story short for those who don't know, I
suffer from a cornea disease. My cornea was trying to break. This had
happened before but this time it was persistent and my doctor had to try
different medications to stop the cornea from breaking. While I was battling
this cornea problem I noticed my right arm becoming very itchy and the two
mosquito bites had
