I hate to sound cynical, especially if this actually happened, but this sounds very fishy. I just don't understand how on
earth a school would agree to give incremental amounts of money solely based on what is basically a petition. I need more
details too. Where and what is Suny Morrisville? Why is the incorrect form of Their used? Why are the hospital bills 20,000
dollars? What's her name?
Usually heart tugging pleas like this are simply a ploy to crash some organization's server, but since this has no reference
to get back to so that the names can actually be counted up (duh) this is going to spin in cyberspace for time immemorial
until people like me stop and go "wait a minute, why am I being such a knee-jerk goody goody and disturbing all my friends,
family and mailing list with this poorly written, disorganized plea for help?"
