IMPORTANT: my friend Fran
Jun. 2nd, 2009 04:32 pmFolks:
Every once in awhile, you get a chance to do something good. It can be as small as helping a stranger in need load groceries into their car, or as big as giving a ginormous chunk of money to Planned Parenthood in honor of Dr. Tiller.
I want something in-between from you.
Fran Varian is one of us. Ours. She's a badass queer femme, and she's spent her whole fucking career as a health worker, counselor and women's health activist...and making precious little money doing it. She's also an extraordinary artist, and her words pack a gorgeous and painful wallop that I highly encourage you to experience.
She's also sick. Fran has late-stage Lyme disease, and after 14 years of mis-diagnosis the disease has destroyed her system.
In order for Fran to get treatment, she needs money.
It won't take much from enough of you. You can go to her page and donate just $10/month, $20/month, whatever you can afford even in a one-time donation, and trust me, it will do more good than you can know.
Please. Please go to http://www.helphealfran.org and donate now.
I did. Will you?
Because we must take care of our own. WE MUST.
