Even though I haven't been into Pokemon for a long time, the first season of the show, the R/B/Y games and the first movie are all quite nostalgic and hold many fond memories. I hope she pulls through.
if you read the go fund me it dont sound like pulling through is an option

sounds more like her sister just wants to let her live her final days in her own home

i could be (and hope to god i am) wrong but just how it sounds to me

Since it got spread all the way to her spine, it's likely that she has secondary breast cancer. The sooner she gets the money needed to treat it immediately, the better her chances will be.

Imagine a world where we have to beg for money to get medical care.

No need to imagine. A supposed first-world country and world superpower surrendered medical aid to the insurance giants who've created an exorbitant market designed to be unapproachable uninsured.

Anyway, I'll kick her some cash.
There's a time and place for everything... but not now.
The words escape me.

It's good to wake up to good news for once
A worthless existence
It's a disgrace that people have to do this for medical care in the world's richest country.

I don't know anything about what VAs are paid, but I certainly agree they should be paid fairly for their work.

Medical care should be given free at the point of delivery on the basis of need. No other consideration.

How do you think it got to be rich in the first place? Not extorting both its own populace and populace acquired in outside territories through weaponized colonialism? Oh sorry, through ""business and trade""?

I'm glad I was able to meet Rachael at Comic Con last year. She's a wonderful person and it warms this bitter heart to see that she's already hit double her target within 12 hours from folks who care enough about another's well being to give what little they can, unlike the corpo pharmaceutical and insurance giant scum.

Whats even more depressing that gofundme is full blown crowdfunding healthcare provider company at this point , its not even the original purpose.

But it gets better
https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2024/02/gofundme-health-care-hospitals/677353/

My inbox and the Bill of the Month project(run by KFF Health News , where I am the senior contributing editor, and NPR) have become a kind of complaint desk for people who cant afford their medical bills, and Im gobsmacked every time a patient tells me theyve been advised that GoFundMe is their best option.



Rob Solomon, the CEO of the platformfrom 2015 to March 2020, who was named one of Time magazines 50 most influential people in health care, has said that he would love nothing more than for medical to not be a category on GoFundMe. He told KFF Health News that the system is terrible. It needs to be rethought and retooled. Politicians are failing us. Health-care companies are failing us. Those are realities.

http://spinsulin.freeforums.org/the-fantastic-four-respect-thread-t4436.html, my huge ass respect thread. You won't see it.
I donated, but at this point GoFundMe might as well be a healthcare provider website.
DI MOLTO!
it has broke 60K

Hello everyone! Once again our sincere thanks for all your kindness, your thoughts, & your messages that have been completely heartfelt!
Was intending to finish up this page, and discontinue the fund efforts since so many have already been so generous.
But I plan to leave this GFM page up until June. (Someone reached out and informed me that there will be a Pokeman card event in NYC on June 2. Proceeds raised will be for Rachael, so for that reason (for ease of donations sent) I will continue to have this up.
Thank you for your wonderful comments through this app, and your emails! It truly lifts Rachaels spirits!
God bless- Laurie
