My Little Pony Artist Is In A Fight For Her Life

jennblakeJenn Blake is a My Little Pony artist who has done some work for IDW and has been hitting the convention circuit. But her friend Kyle Fields referred to it as a farewell tour. She's not leaving the busines… she's dying. Jenn has cancer in her brain and is struggling to afford her already overwhelming medical bills, let alone the treatments that will keep her alive.

Kyle started a gofundme page yesterday, asking for her family, friends, fans and Bronies to help out with whatever they could. His plea was to help save Jenn's life and to take off the financial burden. He put a goal of $10,000.00. Amazingly, that goal was reached within 3 hours. Now, a full day later the total is sitting at over $21,000.00. This is the type of story that reminds me why I love this industry and all that play a role in it.

But medical costs, loss of wages from not being able to work and the possibility of other expenses should encourage anyone who wants to donate to still do so regardless of the total.

Visit the gofundme page for more details.
