Time For Our CommUNITY To Work Together For The Butterfly Temptress

Let me get right to the point: Our very own Best Sex Blogger, the Butterfly Temptress, is fighting for her life. I mean that literally. She is fighting to watch her children grow up and to grow old with her Knight. I’m not just worked up and impassioned just because she’s fighting cancer, though. No, what has me enraged is that she’s exerting precious energy fighting the system. What kind of a country do we live in where we stand by and watch someone be denied cancer treatment because of money? You know it happens — if you make just too much you don’t qualify for medicaid, and if you are like most of us, you’re working without benefits. I suppose the lab has the right to deny her treatment, it is a business, but I could never imagine working for a company like that. I wouldn’t last a day as a pharmacist – if a cancer patient came to me saying she needs pain medication, I would give it to her.
Well, I told the Butterfly Temptress that I am not going to sit idly by and watch as she is denied treatment that could save her life and medicine that can relieve her pain. It’s inhumane.
Originally, I started posting about the series, but didn’t actually post them here. I have been given permission to post them here, so that we, her CommUNITY can repost them widely.
Now it is for us, her CommUNITY, to march beside her into battle. You can read her post about finally accepting the support that I know this CommUNITY can offer her, and I don’t just mean financial support. Please spread the word. Twitter the link. Please send a link here from your blog. Please offer her your love and encouragement. And if you are in a position to donate money to Butterfly, please click the link to the right of the page which goes directly to the Butterfly Temptress Cancer Fund. I know some people are uncomfortable with Paypal, and I am sure that other arrangements can be made.
Start reading tomorrow as I post daily each part of the ten-part series: Life.Love.Cancer and start spreading the word now, please. Start now by going to her post and giving her your love, encouragement, prayers, and blessings. Fill her comments with emotional armor.
