Community member lv99Ron went through a really rough period recently. He almost died. He went through three emergency surgeries and spent three weeks in ICU during his ordeal. Thankfully, he survived and is doing much better now.
As you can imagine though, he owes a lot in medical bills so community member Alex Barbatsis organized a Charity podcast starring himself along with Chad Concelmo, Colette Bennett, Brad Nicholson and Stella Wong. The podcast is available here and all we’re asking is for you to donate at least 99 cents to help towards Ron’s bills. Show some love, Community.
