I just found out about this last night. Sure, she could be making up a bunch of stuff about brain surgeries, but... I just don't think so. Too many of my friends are dead or dying young because of cancer, or have chronic pain, mystery illnesses, or other assortments of bad. Too many more don't have health insurance. If clicking on a dumb ol' link once every day might help this girl get life-saving surgery, I'm in. Even if it doesn't, even if the payout doesn't happen for whatever reason or she's fabricated the whole thing to get a jacuzzi or something, I really haven't lost more than a few seconds of my day. Big deal. Jacuzzi's are cool, too. My gut and my heart believe this is real, though. Maybe it's her earnestness. Maybe it's the work I do that involves health insurance and how much it blows. I just don't believe someone would make that stuff up. Maybe it's that she's exactly my age and I could so easily see myself in the same situation. I don't know. But I clicked.
