it's bettie, again
“Desperate times call for desperate measures!” is what Audrey Harris told herself when she started an online sex work to pay for the insurmountable medical expenses due to her chronic illnesses.
Audrey Harris has returned to the workforce, after spending three years learning to manage her newly diagnosed chronic illnesses. As she attempts to juggle her debilitating symptoms with working part-time at a front desk, she is accepted into a promising drug trial. The catch: she will have to pay out-of-pocket. Audrey tries the conventional methods to make more cash but her medical condition doesn’t lend itself to many jobs. She discovers an online sex work platform and decides to try her luck. Although her initial time spent on the platform is far from financially successful, she becomes a viral sensation when she wildly unravels during a live show, airing her grievances about the medical industry in Canada and how they keep fucking her, but not in a fun way. As her fame grows and her bank account fills with funds, can she navigate the shame that still plagues sex workers - and can her body survive? Because being sick is very expensive and Audrey needs money to not die.
