Thanks....

bump!

Still amazing hardly anyone wants to contribute. Back THEN, 3 months ago, I'd have hesitated as well. I'd have had a smidge of judgement. "Gee that kid must've been so abused or on drugs or fucked up". Not so... No one is in the clear.

Why would no one want to fund research on the 3rd leading cause of death? I studied years ago with this fear, and the numbers were staggering then. Now they just piss me off.

It's simply an uncomfortable subject and if I hadn't decided on pretty much leaving the industry, I wouldn't have posted this. But I thought I'd try out of curiosity.

Other fund raisers that I've been a large part of got tons of respect and some effort in understanding such devestation. The silent killer, most think, should be shrugged off.

*sigh
