Please take a look at the "Freedom Drive"-Foundraising at http://giveforward.org/freedomdrive/ and consider to give some $ if you can afford it.
The cause is a good and honest one.
I've 'met' Lauren through NaNoWriMo in the #nanowrimo IRC-Channel on the goodchatting.com-IRC-Network and got to know her as kind and interesting person.
10000$ is a lot of money for one person alone, more than ever a disabled one. But a lot of people, spending just a few bucks, can make this dream come true.
If you can't afford even a small donation, please spread the word. If you can afford a donation, please spread the word, too. :-)
