For those of you who don't know, a member of the MLP fan community who goes by the name "TheLostNarrator" recently underwent some intense surgery. According to her and her friend Magpiepony, she had an "ovarian cyst of an alarming size" removed from her body. How big is "alarming"?
"They said it was the size of a basketball, and it was ten liters."
...10 liters....What a trooper.
Fortunately she appears to be doing well, though her medical expenses are going to be extensive. In an effort to assist her, a group of pony musicians are releasing an album for sale, with a $1500 portion going to pay her remaining bills and upon her request the rest of the money will go to the Jed Foundation.
The album is available now on this bandcamp page: https://ataraxiamusician.bandcamp.com/
Info Copypasta:
"The album (if you purchase it, please do!) also includes a digital booklet full of fan art from artists all tasked with one thing; to draw Lost Narrator in whatever way they saw fit. This digital booklet also includes track listings, special messages from some of the involved artists, and thank-yous to everyone who has purchased the album.
The first $1,500 the album makes will be going directly to Lost Narrator in order for her to help pay her recovery bills. Anything made by the album after that will be donated directly to The Jed Foundation to go towards promoting emotional health and preventing suicide. We've discussed this with Lost and Magpie, and Lost was adamant about the money being used to prevent self harm and abuse. We are confident with your assistance we will pass our initial goal of $1,500 and raise even more for The Jed Foundation. If this is successful, you guys will be a part of a huge event in this community; another time where the entire community united together under a common goal to help others in need.
The album will be posted on my personal BandCamp page at around 8:00-9:00 PST tonight (March 16th, 2016).
It costs $7.99 (or more, if you're feeling generous).
Thank you all so much for helping us in this endeavor. You're helping people while getting some dope music out of it. You guys are awesome.
P.S: We're partnering with Horse News, PonyvilleLive!, PonyvilleFM, and Horse Music Herald for this release. Go support all of those people too, they are all amazing for helping us spread our goal.

I'm sure Purple Tinker will be the first person helping to grow awareness to this gal's situation, since she's all about charity auctions for the fandom! I'm sure the fact that this woman suffers from an ovarian cyst, which is something that Purple Tinker will never, ever have to deal with in her entire life, won't get in the way of that, right! We're all womyn, after all!

DeleteChanners litteraly cant help but shoehorn griefs and dramas shit they had with other peoples
This is why people like you are rightfully shunned away from normal people
Inb4 REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Purple Tinker has a noticeable jealousy towards cis women, and I think that it's not reeeeee to point that out.
DeleteGo back to Tumblr, Jimbo.
Deleteliterally who?
DeleteYou're more obsessed with drama shit than Purple Tinker, seriously.
DeleteNo, she's just obsessed with ME, and her obsession is annoying literally everyone on this site.
Delete>more obsessed than purple tinker
Delete>thread after thread of purple tinker yelling at anons
>lol k
The anons start the threads, even when they are utterly irrelevant to the post at hand. I merely respond. I'd say that makes them more obsessed.
DeleteYet who shows up in every thread to goad them on ...
DeleteI met Purlpe Tinker at a con once. He called me a nigger.
DeleteWon't Losty's medical insurance cover the medical costs? I smell a rat.
ReplyDelete>medical insurance
Delete>implying a professional youtuber can afford such a luxury
Nyuk nyuk nyuk oh you.
lol seriously?
DeleteInsurance won't cover all of anything these days. That $1500 is probably the copay. Heck, that's probably pretty good insurance to cover a 10 liter cyst- (which would probably be a rather long surgery)
I know that when I was looking into this tumor out of my head, I was looking at over $4000 out of pocket.
"lucky" for me, I have an alternative treatment in a medicine that costs $20 a pill with insurance and makes me puke every other day or so.
And don't worry, the worst the tumor can do is cause blindness. :D
Theres also the deductible, some insurance has a spending limit that if your medical costs go past a certain amount in a calendar year you will have to pay out of pocket, and then if the company sometimes outright refuses to pay for some things, the person has to pay that out of pocket if that happens. The medical system is a mess, and in some aspects obamacare made it worse
DeleteI'm fine with charities like this but can people please stop with putting on on the fake "sad voice".
ReplyDeletei mean like
Deletethat's my normal voice tho
