Submission + - Reddit user with cancer earns $15k donations in 6 hours (reddit.com)
quintin3265 writes: Earlier today, a 23-year-old terminal cancer patient with less than a year to live posted a question-and-answer session about his illness, anticipating a few questions about what it was like to live with kidney cancer. One poster joked that he should travel the world and meet girls from reddit before he died.
After verification, just six hours later 400 users had donated $15,000, with donations continuing to pour in as numerous women agreed to meet poster OceanSkys — with complete strangers offering to host him and provide transportation during his trip around the world. One humble post has turned into a crusade to provide an amazing last few months to a formerly anonymous Internet user.
