The latest issue involves a check mailed from Austin on August 19 by the TRS, which Bell has yet to receive. The money is critical, not just for her business but to help her family in North Carolina, who are reeling from the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. “I originally didn’t intend to use it. However, I’m from Asheville, North Carolina, which has been heavily impacted by Hurricane Helene. Just the stress of dealing with search and rescue to find my mom, my younger sister, my godparents that we’re still searching for… I want to be able to help them back home, but I still have to try to run a business as well. So, I’m kind of frustrated that I can’t assist them financially the way I would want to have,” Bell said.
