Unwell on day of marathon: Why I did it anyway
Having completed my challenge I wanted to share the story, which I feel is worth reading. If you would like to help please share it as widely as you can.
This thread is a follow-up to [url=http://www.bungie.net/7_Community-I-need-your-support/en-us/Groups/Post?id=60024134&groupId=3493#referred-]this[/url]. Your response as a community was really positive and for that I am thankful #SeventhColumn
*** P.S. Arbitor5, an awesome guy who watched the event in person, has some T-shirts (one of which is my super-rare HFCS T-shirt). He'll be giving some away to bnetters (I'll let him explain more), so make sure that if you decide to contribute you note your username somewhere in the donation message (your unique ID, not SecondClass) Thanks :)
Edit 12th July: Seeing as any bnetters that contributed post-offer were anonymous and/or told me they were not worried about swag, and the donation page expires really soon, I feel no guilt in saying Arbitor5 can keep my HFCS tee. It is the very least he deserves, after being such a great-awesome-amazing guy!

2 답변That was very selfless of you, Tom. And you showed great dedication to the cause. But I guess it's fair that people know [url=http://www.essmurphy.com/the-abridged-story-of-my-battle-with-endometriosis/]the whole story.[/url] In that original thread, several people mentioned relations who suffered (or could possibly suffer) from Endo. It's scary really how widespread this disease really is, considering how drastically it is undertreated. With any luck, that will change one day in the near future.

1 답변I remember seeing your original thread and meaning to donate, but I put it off and the inevitable tedium of life pushed it from the forefront of my mind. Apologies. I'm glad you were able to achieve what you set out to do. I'd also like to thank you - not only for bringing a bit more good into the world, but also for raising awareness for something a majority of people don't know about, for your amazingly insightful follow up blog, and for reintroducing me to David Foster Wallace's "This is Water" speech that I had forgotten but was in dire need of remembering. I hope someday your friend can find the relief she's searching for.

21 답변So you decided to swim in order to raise money for a organization that is trying to help women that have their body hurt themselves. Meh I was expecting better, but I guess that isn't bad. Personally if it doesn't kill you then there are bigger things to be concerned about.

3 답변I checked the symptoms of this disease. It just seems excruciating. This really needs attention, keep it up Tom.
