Dear Diary,

            I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to write. I have been in fear of just stopping to sleep. I feel horrible I have barley had anything to eat since I left and I haven’t sleep in almost a week. This is really taking affect on my health but I don’t care. I had to leave. I am almost out of Kentucky which is good but I don’t know how much longer I will be able to go without any food but I have to try to go or else this would be for nothing. I plan on trying to find somewhere to sleep for at least a little bit. I am going to sleep for a few. I will write soon.

                                                                                                                                    Your friend,

                                                                                                                                                Anna
