A New York woman who died Sunday from cancer has raised enough money to erase million of dollars in medical debt with a posthumous plea for help. Casey McIntyre told followers in a social media message posted by her husband that she had arranged to buy the medical debt of others and destroy it as a way of celebrating her life.

RIP, goodhearted woman.

America, if you’d vote for change, this wouldn’t be necessary. The US is the only developed country where this is commonplace.

    Everything about this should make us ashamed of ourselves as a species country

    Don’t rope the rest of humanity into this. Most of the rest of us have got it figured out.

      Then why do the most of us let something like this happen. And while some countries have better healthcare there is still an enormous amount of suffering everywhere be it starvation, war, homelessness you name it. We have the means to be better but we don’t do it.
