About Erin and Project Download

At the goodideas lj community, I've come across a post by Erin on Project Download. Project Download is designed to assist Erin, a 29 year old single woman living in the United States of America. Erin is trying to get enough downloads to qualify for a monetary payout of MegaUploads Rewards program.

Erin suffer from two neurological disorders (Chiari malformation and cranial lesions) that will require a combined total of 2-4 brain surgeries. Living with a Chiari malformation is extremely painful and exhausting (especially living with cranial lesions AND the Chiari).

Erin is unemployed, uninsured and doesn't qualify for Medicaid. In the USA, if you don't have insurance, the healthcare system doesn't provide any assistance for you.


Here is an excerpt from the Project Download website:

I've thought about the different ways I can try to raise this money. I don't like asking for handouts or charity of any kind, so I have hesitated in giving my PayPal information as a solicitation for donations.

Then, I came across the MegaUpload reward program and used part of what little money I do have to set up a paid account for two months for $11.99. This program states if I get 5 million downloads, they will pay me $10,000. There a few stipulations: only one download per IP address per day, only downloads made from qualifying countries, no attempted manipulation or fraud to earn more points.

I don't know if this is too good to be true, but I figure it's worth a shot. If I can somehow reach enough people who would be willing to take time out of their day, hopefully more than just one day, to download this virus free text document, I may be able to get the surgery I need to continue living.


Please consider visiting the Project Download website to help Erin out.

Help With Meds

Erin:
If you are uninsured and need meds, you can probably get them for free from the Patient Assistance Program of the drug's manufacturer. You'll have to do the research to find the paperwork. If you need help, contact an advocacy organization (like Lifeline For Meds) for help with enrollment.
Best Wishes
