Dear Miss Mermaid is a blogger and author from Tortola who was rushed to the hospital there over two weeks ago with an as yet undiagnosed illness. She is a friend and lover of the Virgin Islands and she needs help. I've corresponded with her a few times over weather topics as she contributes often to the Caribbean Hurricane Network at: http://www.stormcarib.com/reports/current/bvi.shtml

Her hospital blog is here: http://dearmissmermaid.blogspot.com/

A site has been set up to provide donations for her care and you can do so by simply buying a copy of her entertaining book "Hurricanes and Hangovers":

She's a good lady...

This lady can use all the positive vibes we can send...no matter what the channel. Read her hospital blog!

Thanks Randy in MD for getting her story out to the forum.

Just catching up here and am thankful that this was posted. I had no idea as I have been AWOL for awhile. We have followed this wonderful mermaid for some time now. Did purchase her book and will encourage others to do the same.
