No, not me.

A dear young friend of mine has recently been diagnosed with a rare degenerative connective tissue disease. She's a college student too, recently divorced with a small son, and is working hard to finish her degree. She's uninsured and has no money for treatment. The disease is incurable, but she needs tests and treatments that will help her prolong her mobility and her life.

She used to be a nude model, and one photographer is donating the proceeds from the sale of his book to her medical fund. If you want a beautiful book of nudes, you can help her out at the same time. I figured I'd share it here because some of you people are lascivious bastards and she's real pretty.

Or, if you donate $20 to her GoFundMe account, she'll photoshop you onto Godzilla: http://www.gofundme.com/3c9saw

She's got kind of a Louise Brooks thing going on there on the book cover.

I see absolutely no reason not to do this. On the other hand, Paypal seems to hate me and I don't have a credit card. I can pick up a prepaid one tomorrow, but in the meantime, I think I'll spread the word on Facebook. No objections, right?

Nope, no objections! Thank you!

She is an absolutely lovely young woman. And a complete sweetheart. It breaks my heart to see her going through this.

The saddest thing is that she has a young son, and since it's a genetic disorder she's terrified that she's passed it on to him.

Draft for Facebook:
QuoteA friend of a friend of mine has a degenerative connective tissue disease. She's a single mother going to college, and she doesn't have the funds or insurance to pay for a treatment. This is terrible. And this is where you come in.

Yes, a book of nudes. Seriously, she used to be a model. This is her work, and the photographer is donating the proceeds from the book sales to her medical fund. Buy a copy, and you'll have helped a single mother live long enough to raise her kid.
Alternatively, if you're a bit of a prude, you can donate $20 to get Photoshopped... ON GODZILLA!

She's quite gorgeous. I'll explain what this is about to Mrs LMNO, and will buy a copy.

Thank you! She is really an amazing person and a great friend, I really appreciate it and so will she! Here is a picture of her on the beach yesterday, throwing a stick for my dog:

Will be better able to cough up $$$ after payday, I will either buy the book or send some $$$.
Prolly the latter, I have books all over the place ATM.
...That's a damn shame she's got that.
I thought Oregon had, like, medical crap for poor people.  Or at least a county clinic system (Which may or may not suck ass).
Hope was the thing with feathers.
I smacked it with a hammer until it was red and squashy

Awesome, thanks!

It is almost impossible for an adult to get on Oregon Health Plan if they are not completely indigent.

The county system is useless for rare diseases that require specialists. It's useless for almost everything besides STD testing, immunizations, and antibiotics, actually.

I am hoping she will get into OHSU's charity program.
