A Steemit Community Appeal: Our Fellow Steemian @darthnava needs our help!

in #steemit7 years ago

This post is a sharp departure from my usual fare... but this is important.

Long-time Steemian, active blogger and community member @darthnava has received some sad news about his health during a recent diagnostic hospital visit.

He now faces treatment at considerable expense. If he doesn't get the treatment within a couple of weeks, the situation could become life threatening.


This man needs our help!

I strongly encourage you to visit his original post to read more.

You can help by doing any/all of the following:

Upvote and resteem his post!

Go through the comment section of his post and upvote ALL replies made by @darthnava. It'll take you a few minutes, but every penny counts!

If you can afford to, make a direct contribution of Steem or Steem Dollars directly to his Steemit account... @papa-pepper-- one of Steemit's finest-- has already led the way with a very generous donation, but more is needed!

I was originally going to "decline payout" on this post, but to get as much as possible from this appeal, instead 100% of any payout for this post will be sent to @darthnava.

Steemit is an amazing community... let's all pull together and help our friend!

Thanks to all-- upvote and resteem-- spread the word!

Damn this is sad, glad to see the community helping like this! Will do my best to help!

I'm glad to see the community rallying to his aid... it's a great sign that Steemit truly IS a "community."

It really is a good sign! Steemit is really coming together for darth, there isn't much time left but it's great everyone is acting quickly

Upvoted and resteemed. May everything go well for @darthnava.

Thank you! It all helps.

upvoted and resteemed, good to help out fellow steemians who really need it. :)

Thank you! The response has been excellent.

This is great that even upvoting might actually help some one.
I hope he gets better soon. My well wishies to him.

Looks like the public appeal has done quite well... and he will be able to afford his hospital expenses.

I will keep an eye out for @darthnava's posts and make sure I upvote them. Thank you for bringing it to our attention. <3

Thanks! I love the way there's a real "community spirit" at work here. At the current pace, his post asking for help may just be able to fund most of his hospital bills.

Oh I hope so. That would be amazing, wouldn't it? Last night before bed It was over the $3800 mark.

Still trickling in... but there's a good additional flow happening from people upvoting all his replies in the comment section; at least another $1500 happening there. Add in direct donations and he may just be able to get it done! Which would be a totally awesome story of community cooperation!
