Dear FutureMe,
Do you remember when mom and Mark came down to fix the fence and cars and you got into something? First the spider bites on your elbow, and then the itchy horrible rash for weeks afterwards that spread all over. Remember how I was going crazy trying to find something to make it not itch anymore? We even considered finding a witch doctor at that point. Tell me, did it actually leave a lasting scar? We've been so worried about that and feeling really self conscious about the discoloration everywhere. I wonder if it actually got better. You know me, always worrying over something for no reason.
Has the health anxiety gotten any better? It doesn't feel like I'm dying anymore right now but then again the stress is much less than it was a few months ago. How are you doing, truly? I know that you'll always find a reason to smile and laugh again even in the hardest times. But don't forget it's okay to cry too. It's human, and it's a normal thing.
It's after midnight here. I should probably go to bed. I love you, always,
Eliza xoxo

Epilogue

You know, I still get an awful rash on that elbow. Even now it looks like I’ve gotten into poison ivy. But...
