She has not posted here since the election. I tried PM'ing her but have not gotten a response. I worry she had a meltdown/shutdown over the election or a serious health issue occurred. Adding to concerns is that her native New Zealand had a pretty serious earthquake.

Come to think of it...this is indeed worrying. I PM-ed her recently and didn't hear back -- I just figured she was busy. But now you mention it, it's starting to be concerning in light of the earthquake.

Yup, Hope she is ok! Kaikoura was the worst place hit but effected pretty much all NZ, so hope wherever she is, she is safe and ok!?

I did the same. No word yet.

Two people were killed in the earthquake this week. I don't think you need to worry all that much, their are 4 million people in New Zealand and low chance she would have been affected. Plus from what I recall I think she lives in Auckland, same place as me.

From what I hear B19 has a close family to help support her, so I honestly think their is only a matter of time before she comes back.

It is very possible that she is helping others.

I have heard back from her, all is well. She was away from home and offline.

TBH I didn't even know she was gone. I have been inactive myself because I have gotten busy and been distracted by the election.

I am on leave until further notice, as this is a very stressful time for my family, so please send PM requests to other moderators meantime.

B19 and ASPartOfMe are my favorite activists on this site, so I'm glad she's okay.
