[A selfie, taken in what appears to be a high school bathroom. Beth’s phone (Samsung Galaxy S6, with clear case) obscures her face, although her hair and upper torso are visible: her hair is curly, brown, in a high ponytail; she is wearing a mustard yellow sweater and a silver necklace.]

[A candid shot of Beth; she is wearing a bulky green jacket and a pinstripe romper, holding a to-go box. Her appearance seems normal. The box is presumably from the Chili’s she is sitting in front of, on a bench. The photo was taken around 8pm, based on lighting.]

[Two photos: one of two muffin tins, filled with uncooked batter; the second is of the finished muffins, still in the tin. The muffins appear to be blueberry. The second photo is incredibly blurry and unfocused, especially compared to the first.]

October 28, 2017
[A selfie, taken with the front-facing camera; Beth’s face is reddened and puffy, and seems incredibly uneven - her left side seems more swollen than the right. Her hair appears much curlier.]

October 31, 2017
[A group photo, of Beth alongside two friends, one of whom is labelled as kate_jankowski (identified as Katherine “Kate” Jankowski), the other as w.as.te.lan.d (identified as Aya Demirkan). Kate is dressed as a nurse, splattered in fake blood; Aya is wearing a large black t-shirt with an embroidered alien head; Beth is dressed in a black shoulder-padded blazer and skirt, with tights and a large blonde wig.]

[Another mirror selfie, in the high school bathroom. Beth is wearing a grey flannel over a white t-shirt. Her face is obscured, but her hair is now blonde, and her shoulders seem wider.]
[No caption.]
November 11, 2017
[Three photos: a candid shot of Aya, working in a sketchbook; a picture of Aya’s sketch, which appears to be Beth; a selfie of both Aya and Beth. In the selfie, Aya appears as normal, while Beth’s hair is now short, brown, and straight; the left side of her face is swollen again. The sketch of Beth is “normal” Beth.]

[A blurry photo of a toilet, presumably Beth’s.]
[No caption.]
November 29, 2017
[A selfie, with the front-facing camera. Beth’s skin is incredibly dry, to the point where her lips are cracking and her forehead seems to have bled in her expression lines. Her hair is much shorter.]

January 18, 2017
[A mirror selfie. Beth is completely bald, and the fingers holding her phone are almost twice as long as before. Her skin is still dehydrated, but seems no worse than before.]
caput.it.away merry christmas!!
w.as.te.lan.d Christmas was three weeks ago, Beth?
bowlingallison huh. i like the bald look actually
caput.it.away @bowlingallison what?
January 23, 2018
[A front-facing camera selfie. Beth appears to be at a high-end spa, sitting in a mud bath. The dryness is no longer an issue - in fact, her skin seems over-hydrated. She is visibly wet, and her under-eyes and cheeks appear to be developing edema. She is apparently trying to smile, but her skin is too loose to hold a proper smile; she remains bald. The photo is unfocused.]

January 24, 2018
[A front-facing camera selfie. Beth is outside, dressed in a puffy black bomber jacket and a green knit cap; she is laying on the sidewalk, her right cheek touching the ground. Frost is forming in her eyelashes and on her lips; her skin is particularly pale. The lighting suggests this photo was taken early in the morning, probably 4am.]

[A mirror selfie of Beth, in the same pose and location as the one 6 days prior. She is bald again, retains only three fingers on both hands. She is not wearing shoes. The image is high-quality, but Beth herself has compression artifacts.]
