Ash Jackson Recovery Fund - TW: Graphic Images

The last month has been one hell of a ride for Ash Jackson. She lost her best friend to a heart attack, had an article written in The Age about her journey in and out of the anti-vax movement, and she also went on The Project telling the same story. Overall, it was received positively, but it also came with a lot of backlash, mostly in the form of transgender hate. To top this off, she left a set of rare guitar pedals on the tram, which are difficult if not impossible to replace. Honestly, it's been a shit of a time even before the incident.

Then a week ago, she was the target of an unprovoked trans-hate assault where she was king hit five times, choked unconscious and kicked in the head, resulting in a severely broken jaw requiring surgery and dental work. The offender is on remand and is known to be violent to other women, including putting his own mother in a coma a few years ago. He also stole $800 of Ash's rent money, which the police were unable to locate.

I figured if we all chip in a few bucks Ash might have a slightly more comfortable recovery from this terrible incident. As you can see in the pictures, it's brutal. Surgery is required, and it's a specialist surgery which will result in a long time of recovery where she can't work or do much of anything at all.

Thanks guys - I really appreciate anything you can afford. Every little bit counts. Ash is legit, and all of this is true. No grift here.
