There is now enough money in the world to help pay for the medical bills of millions of people across the globe who are facing health problems due to the death of Casey Mclntyre who lost her life from ovarian cancer.
During a social media message she intended to share after she passed away, she urged her followers to consider giving a donation to her cause in memory of her.
As a way of honoring her life, she mentioned that she intended to settle the medical debts of other people as a way to honour her memory.
On social media, she wrote, “If you’re reading this, please accept my sincere condolences.”.
There is no doubt in my mind that I loved each and every one of you with my whole heart and that I knew the depth of your love for me… to honour my existence, I’ve arranged to buy up others’ medical debts and then destroy it in order to honor my life.
In addition, she stated that she felt fortunate to have access to high-quality medical care throughout the course of her battle against stage four ovarian cancer, and she wanted others to be able to experience the same.
It was reported as of Saturday that McIntyre and her family had raised more than $170,000 (£136,000) for her campaign with RIP Medical Debt, a nonprofit organization which helps people deal with medical debt. In the last few years, McIntyre’s campaign has erased as much as $17 million in outstanding medical bills, as the group pays off a dollar of medical debt for every dollar contributed to the campaign.
It is reported that the company buys medical debt for a fraction of its original cost, in bundled portfolios of millions of dollars at a time, according to the company.
According to its website, anything you donate has a 100x impact on the world as compared to what you give.
The non-profit KFF, which promotes the advancement of health research, estimates that up to 100 million Americans may suffer from medical debt each year.
Upon her passing, McIntyre’s family announced that she had passed away and that they would hold an event in Prospect Park, New York City, to honor her life by purchasing and forgiving the medical debt of other people anonymously in order to honor her memory. This event is known as a “debt jubilee” and memorial event in December.
On Sunday, April 7, 2019, McIntyre, a book publisher for more than 30 years, passed away after undergoing chemotherapy for ovarian cancer.
When her article was published, she described in great detail the “magical” moments she experienced with her friends and family throughout Virginia, Rhode Island, and New York during the final five months of her life when she was receiving hospice care.
There is a message from Casey’s spouse Andrew Rose Gregory on X, the platform that was formerly known as Twitter, which says: “Casey. We will be looking everywhere for you, even if you are not present with us, because we love and miss you.
