I am home now. I am okay but I'm sicker than I wanted to ever admit. I am not well enough yet to start responding to emails or orders yet but I will get there soon I hope. I am still bleeding (it's been 2 weeks now) and now is when my period was scheduled so I anticipate bleeding for at least another week. I am trying to get into the gynocologist to figure out what is wrong. I apologize from the bottom of my heart for the wait. I will send everything out as soon as I am better.

I debated whether or not to even post this but I feel like it is my last resort, so here I go....

Those who know me, know I am a very private person-- not just my online life but my personal life as well. I've been hurt a lot and I have a hard time letting anyone in, so to speak. When things are bad, when I am hurting, I put on a good facade. I have a lot of acquaintences, but few people I would call real friends. I put up a wall and I'm really good at it. I appear to be the girl who has it all, the one you'd be envious of but next time you see a pretty girl it's not always what it seems. It certainly is not with me.

I never really thought I was as sick as I was. I think I just talked myself out of believing it because I don't "look" sick. I have a serious medical condition that is not completely diagnosed, after several years of pusuing vigorous medical testing and care. I could always function, but I am easily exhausted and I was never near the functioning ability of peers my same age.

I gave up awhile ago on doctors because I couldn't take the constant disappoint and discouragement. No treatment they would try would work, so I stopped going. My condition has notibly worsened over the last year and it's at the point where I can hardly do the simple things like running to the drug store without making a whole day of it. The past two years I have been unable to hold a full time job because of my condition and at this point it would be unthinkable. I do some work here and there, aside from running this site, to try to make ends meet but even the occasional modeling job is becoming difficult and I'm not well enough to do as many as I used to.

I have talked very little about my financial situation, except that I am in a tremendous amount of debt (alot of it medical related)-- approximately 30k. There was some legal stuff that I truly believed would come through to alleviate a big chunk of it, but after almost a year of waiting, I found out that is no longer the case. My credit, which used to be flawless, in two years has become almost as low as it can go, because of it.

Every bill I have is long overdue-- phone, internet, electricity, and rent which is now at almost 2 months overdue. I wake up every day and pray there is not an eviction notice on my front door, though I know it's coming any day now. My internet and phone could be shut down any day. There are many more details but they pry far too deep into my personal life that even the people closest to me do not know. I do not know where I am going to go if I get evicted. There are reasons that prevent me from being able to call on my parents, but even if I was to move in with them I would no longer be able to run this site.

If this seems absurd and extreme, it feels that way to me, like I am living in someone else's world, but I am telling 100% the truth. This is humiliating and discouraging and I don't know what to do. I am not eligible for goverment aid or food stamps until I can get back into the specialist that would be able to put me on disability, because otherwise I am considered "employable" but it is evident that I am unable to work. I lost 5lbs in the past two days because I could afford nothing but ramen noodles. I am looking into local resources for food pantries at churches and non-profits but I can't bring myself to go to a soup kitchen yet. I haven't even been able to buy tampons and have resorted to shoving toilet paper in my panties. It makes me feel really pathetic and I really need help but I feel like there's nowhere to go and I am so sick.

I'm in a really difficult position right now. It costs me around $30 a month to run this site and I do not even have enough money to feed myself, yet this is my only income right now and I desperately need money to live. I asked you to read this only to know where I am and what is going on. If you want to help, I will take any help you can give-- whether it's money to help pay the bills, grocery store gift cards, walmart gift cards (for groceries), gas cards, even food. Anything will help, even one dollar. Please do not use the amazon donation link as it takes a very long time for me to get any money you might send through there.

My inbox is flooded right now so I set up a separate email address if you would sincerely like to help. I will check it as often as I can. As soon as I am able to start wearing your panties again, I will send things out asap. There is enough money in my bank account to cover the shipping for the orders that are waiting to be sent out. Call me crazy, but I'll starve before I touch that money because I don't consider it mine and I have no way of paying the shipping on the orders if I were to use it. As humiliating as this is, I still have respect for my customers and your orders WILL be sent out eventually even if I manage to be in a shelter.

If you got this far, I really appreciate that genuinely took the time to read this. I posted it in News and here so hopefully it will be seen. I am not trying to beg, I just feel like I need to be honest.

If you would like to help in anyway
PLEASE EMAIL ME at helpmackenzie@gmail.com

Humbly,
Mackenzie]]>MackenzieNews & Updates2007-10-01T14:04:18-07:00http://www.prettypuss.net/news-updates/index.html#unique-entry-id-69http://www.prettypuss.net/news-updates/index.html#unique-entry-id-69MackenzieNew Additions2007-10-01T14:00:50-07:00http://www.prettypuss.net/news-updates/index.html#unique-entry-id-68http://www.prettypuss.net/news-updates/index.html#unique-entry-id-68Economy Panties!

Here you can find my wishlists from several different online retailers including Victoria's Secret and Amazon.com in addition to my favorite stores to get gift certificates from. If you feel so inclined to send me a little something special, surprises always make my day.]]>MackenzieNew Additions2007-05-03T17:16:50-07:00http://www.prettypuss.net/news-updates/index_files/archive-0.html#unique-entry-id-1http://www.prettypuss.net/news-updates/index_files/archive-0.html#unique-entry-id-1Contests, Jokes, & Polls. If you were a fan of the Dirty Joke of the Week that's where you'll find it resides now. I don't currently have any contests posted but I hope to soon, so you're not going to want to miss out that. My first poll is a quick little survey about how you like the new website format. The Online Polls will vary in topic, and change every so often. Sometimes they might be naughty, sometimes silly, who knows! The website format poll goes directly to me, but in the future some of the polls will display results real time so you can see how my visitors are voting!]]>MackenzieChanges2007-05-02T02:32:21-07:00http://www.prettypuss.net/news-updates/index_files/archive-0.html#unique-entry-id-0http://www.prettypuss.net/news-updates/index_files/archive-0.html#unique-entry-id-0
I also wanted to thank all my buyers, new visitors, and the girls of the panty community for being supportive while I have been handling some personal things. I couldn't stay away for long, as you can see. Hopefully I will get back into the swing of things in no time.

While you're exploring, I'd love to hear from YOU directly. I set up an anonymous online poll about the new format that will only take a minute to fill out. You don't have to enter your email or your name, I just want to see what you think about the new site!]]>
