I'm Ivan, or my online name of Reen, and I'm here asking for any help I can get with helping who I consider my best friend and person I love, Jade, with paying her debt and medical expenses. She is unemployed and not getting any help from her own family, so I have been helping her a lot financially but it's not enough. I would only ask for help with this from people I trust a lot, so if you are seeing this, you are probably one of those people. Normally I would hate to do this unless I felt there was something very important at stake here, and in this case it is her own life because she has told me that she may give up on life and end it all if she can't get out of her horrible situation by the end of the year. Jade is the most important person in my life currently, so I think it's pretty clear why I am starting this fundraiser.

Let me make it absolutely clear that I am saying this to get across why I care so much about it, but my intent is not to guilt trip anyone into helping a person they have never met, seen or talked to, so don't feel like you absolutely have to help me with this especially if it would put you at risk, but even if we don't exactly reach the goal of £2000 (now £600), any help at all is greatly appreciated. I know most of my friends are American, and gofundme accounts for foreign currency so that isn't a problem. I am more than willing to pay back everyone who helps with this once Jades medical and financial troubles are resolved.

It's worth saying for the sake of clarification that any money I receive from this will be going straight to Jade, and if anyone wants more information then I can talk about it.

Even if you can't directly help with the fundraiser, I would appreciate it if you would be willing to spread this around.

Update: (oct 10th) She needs more, the donations so far were a big help, but this along with my own contributions haven't been enough to resolve Jades situation and now its looking like she might be going homeless soon. I'm not completely out of options, but she could really do with short term help soon and my remaining options probably won't come in fast enough.
