History:
Mae was born in San Diego California at the Balboa Naval Hospital and spent a fair amount of time traveling with one or both of her parents who were Army officers. Her childhood was a lonely one and she grew up much faster then she should have. During these years her only close relative with whom Mae had made a connection with was an aunt residing in Boulder, Colorado. Rarely seeing her aunt Mae found she often had to fend for herself. Mae was used by a lot of people in her life, first by her parents who were career officers and later by a professor in medical school. She was found to have a high IQ in childhood and spent most of the following years under intense pressure by her parents.
College was a turning point for Mae, truly free for the first time in her life Mae found she enjoyed teaching children and had made plans to follow this path when her aunt died. After this Mae went into depression and was manipulated by her parents into going into science and she graduated with a medical degree and specializing in microbiology from UCLA. Without caring about what path her life was on Mae joined the Army and was stationed at USAMRID in Virginia. The plague left Mae feeling very guilty that some of her research may have been responsible for the flu bug and has kept secret her medical degree and short career in the military for fear of being persecuted. She now poses as a teacher in the post-plague world. Sisko, her cat, came to her two weeks before the plague and has been the only other living thing that Mae trusts and loves since the death of an aunt Mae had developed a close relationship with. As the plague died down Mae affected with the same dreams as the others - struck out to Boulder hoping to find her aunts children alive.
