Alright, I know you guys see these things posted all the time. And you can never tell if it's fake or not. Or if everything is true.
Well this is.
I know this person.
This amazing, caring, truley wonderful person.
And for once she needs help, instead of all the help she's given others.
I'll summarize it if you don't want to read everything.
She has degenerative bone and joint disease, among other things.
She's having multiple surgeries and she lives alone.
She needs a wheelchair, and her insurance company won't cover it.
She needs donations from friends, because she simply doesn't have the money on top of all these surgeries and other costs to afford this wheelchair.
You can donate, or buy a piece of her work.
Even if it's only a couple dollars, please help her.
I'm posting this here because you guys are open minded, kind, caring people.
I've seen you guys band together to form rattie trains across the U.S.
Send care packages across the U.S.
You guys rock!
So please, please help Corey.
And keep an open mind.
She's an amazing person.
I'm not sure of any of you guy's lifestyle.
But Corey made it into Curve magazine earlier this year.
That's her work. It' amazing! Buy if you can.
Sorry for rambling, I'm just trying to get help for her.
Thanks for listening. <3
