Update
You, fandom, are amazing. Thank you so much for the amazing response.
As of 2:20 pm PST, the estimated total collected is $1812 (figure may revise higher if there have been more private donations than I have accounted for).
Thank you so much to everyone who has helped in any way - to those who have donated funds, donated their creative efforts or collectables, and those who have signal boosted. Thank you so much! Please keep spreading the word.
For those who have donated funds, or who are considering donating, please see this post on DW and this post on LJ for a variety of thank you offerings. Be sure to check out the comments in both places -- there are different offerings on each comm.
Also, for those who wish to know more of the personal story of what has been happening with sharpest_asp (merfilly), their SO, ilyena_sylph posted this public entry which sums up things far better than I ever could.
Thanks again for stepping up in a time of need. These moments always inspire hope and faith in humanity.
