This is for all of you who don’t know a little bit of my story.
In 2019 and I was diagnosed with two incurable diseases, one autoimmune and one lung related.
The only treatment that was supposed to work failed. I did try it again and it failed and then they told me there is no more they can do.
From then on, it’s been hundreds of infections, sicknesses, hundreds of rounds of antibiotics, steroids….
This is the most scariest unpredictable set of diseases. Especially when doctors say they don’t know what to do for me anymore.
It makes you feel sick to your stomach because I fought so very hard all these years. Now I am very tired and so very weak.
I have been sick every week for the last 11 months straight and it has taken a toll on my mental health as well as my physical health.
That’s just a short version. I just wanted you all to know that I did not just give up because you know this channel and beading meant absolutely everything to me.

Hi everyone,
This is going to be the hardest post I have ever had to write.
YouTube has flagged me for my channel being inactive for over two years. This means my channel will be automatically be deleted, and they will own all of my content. I can’t allow that to happen so unfortunately everything needs to come down.
I’m going to leave the channel up for as long as I can.
I will give you the information as to where I am so you can stay in touch with me.
The only platform I am on now is Instagram and my handle is…

I will leave my page up for one week and then it’s all coming down.
Over the past year, I have lost everything as you all know, including my home, my car, my business and out of all of those things I would give anything to have my health back.
Over the past three months, I have been dealing with a major health. Such as severe problem, I lost hearing in my left ear.
I have gone downhill severely and it has broken my spirit. Exhausted beyond words.
As I’ve said before, I am on Instagram I will open my page to public for a little while and you can read about everything.. it’s a lot and it’s all very raw and honest.
I am severely sad and very broken by the healthcare system. Disappointed is an understatement.
I am grateful for all of you. For all of the friendships I have made along the way.
I just want to say thank you from the very bottom of my heart. You all allowed me to be free with my creativity and designs.
You welcomed and accepted me, and your kindness has always been appreciated and always will.
Please know that having this channel was one of the best times of my entire life.
I miss each and everyone of you every day.
Xoxo Alicia

Journey

Hi,

Welcome to my page. I have been beading for well over 20 years. This is truly my passion and my purpose in this life. Sharing designs with others is one of my favorite things to do. I love inspiring others as well as teaching. All I want is to keep the art of beading alive forever.

Thank you so much for all of your kindness and support. Also a huge thank you for walking this journey with me. The friends I have made along the way are exceptional. I appreciate that more than anything.

Always,
