I’m glad she found a solution that worked for her.
However, and you may say I’m a dreamer, I hope we get to to a world where people do not have to resort to sex work to save their own lives.
Sex work? Any work at all. That a story where someone raises enough money to pay for life saving treatment is seen as a feel-good story is really sad.
Meanwhile, even in our crumbling NHS, I don’t have to worry about going into debt to pay for cancer treatment.
I live in Spain, and in spite of paying a shitton of money in taxes, I can’t fathom changing that for a system like the US. Man, my SO is in dialysis, the amount of money we would need to spend for something like this in the US it would put us on the street right away.
Universal healthcare you mean? A you a fucking commie? That’s not the American Way™
What is happening in north America? North of the border you also have people asking to stay in prison because they have no hope of getting somewhere to live, and now this?
Look dude, you really aren’t thinking about the shareholders right now. Get with it
Yeah. Simply put both bi partisan attempts to keep people stupid and distracted worked really well with us post WW2.

We live in the worst timeline
Glad I live in Canada where my Cancer treatment was free. (Except for hospital parking pass)
Did they offer you a free M.A.I.D. too?
No, mine was before MAID came in to effect I think, and not terminal if they cured it. I do know someone who had terminal situation and they took the MAID option to avoid 6 weeks of pain and degradation
It would probably be cheaper for me to drive up to White Rock or Abbotsford BC then go see a doctor in Seattle even with my insurance. But when you get sick it’s kind of hard to shop around.
Instead one could also move to a country with universal health care. If you do this when you are still healthy, you could prevent this with regular check ups. Of course sometimes can be missed something and waiting times can be quiet long but that is not exclusive to universal healthcare.
Many of those countries won’t accept “I need to live here for the free health care” on a citizenship application. They expect you to bring something to the table, some kind of skill for which they have a need.
You don’t need the citizenship to live somewhere forever. At least not in Austria. And you neither need something to bring to the table. It’s enough if you want to live there.
I may be having a degenerate moment, but could someone please explain the Walter white angle here? It’s gone right over my puny smoothbrain
Walter white had cancer
He started making meth to pay for his treatment
No one’s going to ask what her onlyfans is?
No
