Elaine and Spike are two of my favorite people on the planet. Any list of people I hold in extreme respect has them by the top. Spike apparently has a 50/50 she won’t get through this. I’m willing to be optimistic though, that if need be she’ll scratch and claw her way past everything. Even so, any support is appreciated.
Elaine’s letter to everyone:
So, I always said I wouldn’t “telethon” anyone on this list.
But, my lover, bottom, housemate, and soon-to-be-spouse Spike has been
diagnosed with ovarian cancer, is off work, and is going through
chemotherapy…and gee, look how fast my mind has changed.
I’m not asking specifically for donations… ‘though if you’re finding
yourself overburdened with cash and can’t *stand* it, we can help you out.

I just suddenly need a higher income, is all.
What I am asking is that you’ll check out my work site and see if there’s
anything I can do for you.
Know someone with a small business who doesn’t have a site yet? Wanna buy
a personal site for your kid so she can write a blog? Always wanted an
email address you don’t have to change until they restructure the
internet? Got friends of whom you can ask the same questions? Hosting
starts at $5 Cdn / month.
Here’s my site:
http://dyketech.com/
and my oh-so-cute flyer, which should be attached but in case you got this
as a forwarded email…

All the money, whether donated or earned, does *not* go to charity — it
goes to feed and shelter one little butch leatherdyke with cancer, and one
big femme leatherdyke who loves her madly.
If you wanna get details on what’s up with Spike, go here for our blog on
the subject:

Thanks for any help, or referrals, or business you can shoot our way.
