Sounds like it's time for you to get another reporter to do a story on you so you can live off the donations like the last time.
Wow. That's about as heartless as it gets. IF Mari did benefit from donations as a result of a story, then good! I can't think of many people on this Cellar more deserving of a little good fortune. Do you say that to al the people who have benefitted from donations as a result of newspaper stories? Maybe the little boy in my ward whose parents had to raise money for stem cell treatment? Newspapers covered it, people ran marathons for him.....people donated sums of money. How mercenary of him and his parents to use the media for their own gain.

Mari, don't let shit like that get to you. I don't know if you did benefit from donations, but I hope you did. Plenty of people get press coverage and get paid who don't need/deserve that payday.
