[quote=Anonymous]People are so comfortable begging these days. I keep seeing a few influencers who are ‘famous’ because they have or had a child/partner with a terminal illness. Obviously this is horrible and there are associated costs with such issues (funeral, medical expenses, etc.) But I’ve questioned the volume of money raised and what it’s supposedly used for: both have raised closed to a million dollars plus funds from merch sales, items sent from Amazon wishlists and registries…one GoFundMe was essentially to fund the surviving parent and child’s entire life, including funds for a potential wedding. Meanwhile, I see others with medical issues who can hardly afford prescriptions. I just question whether funds could be used more equitably, but I guess people can donate wherever they want. [/quote]
