      Sepsis is a inflamation reaction in a wound internal or external. It can be very deadly... If not treated immediately. And it is very treatable. And no you dont get cancer from it. Sepsis is deadly. Especially if you are in the wilderness. You get a wound and it contacts sepsis. Someone could die from that. But not if you are treated in a hospital.

    My brother was the victim of a scam from a family member. Two of our cousins(twins) convinced him to co-sign on student loans. He was in the Navy at the time and was deployed out on a ship for several months shortly after. During this time, they attempted a single semester and then took the money and went on a few trips to Europe, and various other destinations. Beyond that first semester, the money was never spent on anything school related.
    My brother came home thinking everything was alright. He married his fiancé and they started building their life as he served his last year on base. It wasn't long after getting married that they found out what happened and found out they were also responsible for paying back the loans and that nothing had been paid. The cousins hadn't paid anything and decided to just live with their mother, not caring about the credit hit.
    My brother was now stuck paying the loan and interest lest his credit be destroyed. Unfortunately, much of the damage had already been done. When he finished his 4 years, he and his wife tried to buy a home only to be rejected because of the massive unpaid loan on his record. They tried for 2 years to get a home and failed each time. They struggled to even get a car loan.
    This went on for about 3 years until his mother-in-law stepped in and settled the matter in court. My brother and his wife still had to pay the mother-in-law back, but on their terms and without interest. It took them 4 more years to be able to get a home and sadly, the market became much more expensive in that time.
    The twins got what they deserved. Their credit was obliterated and they were left responsible for the balance. It has since created a rift in our family between those who support the twins and those who support my brother. Those who support the twins are not my family anymore.
    Always remember that you don't owe your family. Just because someone shares your blood doesn't mean they deserve your trust. Stay safe out there everyone.

In general the larger the charity, the less of the donated money actually gets to the people that it's meant for. To some degree this is logical, a big operation means more costs, but a lot of the money also simply gets wasted.

    This one hits home really hard because my father actually did something incredibly similar. He lied to all of us that he had cancer, which seemed feasible because he was a long time smoker. The only reason we stopped to question anything was because we had already know he was an addict over years and had stolen things from the family. It's unfortunate too because my mother has a brain tumor and he even stole her medication after she had surgery. Neither of us have any contact with him now, but there are still people that believe him over my mother and I and that's a pretty big pain to deal with, it rips a family apart because you try to show your love and care.

    In this tragic case I'm amazed the family spent hundreds of thousands but never saw a single invoice, bill, letter or pathology report? No practice or clinic ever called to confirm or change an appointment? I have had family members die (of cancer yes) and we were swamped with paperwork, still finding some years later. No family ever spoke to _any_ of the doctors or specialists she was supposedly seeing to talk about hospice or palliative care arrangements? They never questioned why she never went to a dialysis facility? Did her husband attend a single 'treatment'? Maybe she walked into reception waited a few minutes then left after family did...

That's when she told them she had cancer (also messaged me the same day). They go from kicking her out to giving her her own little house. Strawberry
    I've found myself doubting her, and her own father has too. He filed for disability for her and needed her medical records but she failed to provide them. He files anyway and she is rejected. She still won't go get the records for him as if it's too much for her to handle.
    She has said she won't do chemo or radiation so she's basically forgoing treatment. But she claims to be stage 3 so forgoing ANY form of treatment for cancer is highly suspicious.

We both lost weight, lost all of our hair, spent time in hospitals (where people visited), had company at chemo appointments, had obvious surgeries and recovery periods, had visible chemo ports… and I could go on and on.

    A similar thing happened to my mother in her first marriage who was an employee of hmrc. He was incredibly controlling and paranoid that my mother would cheat on him or leave him the he forged his entire life story to make himself seem interesting and more favourable giving her as she says the backstory of the main character in the movie highlander (she and I haven't actually seen the movie so I don't know if it's a good analogy) as his life story claiming he was of high social status and had been the last in his blood line. He even lied to her saying his brothers had died of cancer even though he never actually had any. This didn't end here when she started to get suspicious of his stories he claimed to have gotten cancer and implored her to quit her job to focus on looking after her. This went on for around 2 years before his mother reached out to her and told her the truth after she had found out herself about her son's lie when my mum confronted him about it he revealed all of the other lies he told her and told her if she left him he would kill himself leading to their divorce.
    The point of this story is that as Kira said it's more common than you think and people do it for a variety of reasons. Where this story was more focused on the monetary gain of illness. My mother's story is a story of a mentally ill man who can't stand not being in control. It's fucked up and personally even if they don't gain any money or fame from it they should go to prison. They are not well and are harming everyone around them

      Fraud is not prosecuted in the correct way it is viewed as a white collar crime and none violent in nature. There needs to be a greater emphasis put on the scope of the damage done by the fraud. They also need to look at what you took from your victims ie. their time, their money, and what they could have done with those 2 assets instead of the fraud. IMO if your fraud means a person needs to work for 3-4 years to pay off the debt they acrued from your fraud that is where the prison sentence should start as a minimum if they have no ability to provide you with restitution.
      We aren't even factoring in the emotional or psychological violence brought against her victims. How many times did her father, mother, son, husband and close friends lose sleep over her situation? How many relationships did they damage? Further an alarmingly high number of people do not go after those who defrauded them because the internet hate machine will just call them an idiot who deserved it. Afterall its your fault for having empathy and believing someone and not the person who defrauded you's fault for doing so.
      We need to get rid of that stigma and increase the punishment for fraud if they can't make restitution. I would fully support Jenny having to work and getting her wages garnished for the rest of her life or until she has made those that she hurts full again whichever happens first.

    Someone like her, addicted and broken...I always find it so sad how they don't feel any guilt. Guilt is a sign you still care about how others feel about you (this includes your own sense of what you think of yourself). She's completely lost her interest in how others view her besides tricking them, and has basically no love or interest in them.
    Addictions can really just sever someone's connections to others making your whole life about the euphoria chase and anything that gets in the way just can't compare to that thing, so it merely becomes a nuisance, even if it's your own family. The things you can do as if they're nothing once you've totally surrendered yourself to it and lost any interest in others... it's just pathetic and sad.
    Even if she somehow managed to fix her addiction I doubt she'd try to start connecting with others again because all that waits for her their is guilt and shame beyond what most people could ever stand. The only kinds of people you can connect with at that point are those who have been or are like you and understand what you did.
    Her life is so utterly destroyed because she let herself get so consumed by that addiction she disconnected with any sense of morality or caring about how others might feel about her and consequently enabled herself to do horrendous things as if it was nothing.

      Maybe addiction turning someone into a monster seems ridiculous to you, but as someone who has seen and experienced some of that first hand, it's really not surprising. It's not gonna magically turn an angel into a demon, but it's a slow gradual process that destroys your humanity piece by piece as you let go of just a little bit more each time.
      It's not like that sort of thing even excuses what they did in any way, but it's very real how your mind can be corroded and you can lose yourself. It's important to acknowledge some of what causes this shit to happen, because if we don't identify the problem, we take no steps in our life to combat it. We just go "Oh I guess I'm just a shit person" and give up.

It is a nature PLUS nurture situation. The addiction worsened something already effed in her psychology.

      Addicts are a highly likely candidate. Pun unintended.

      She was addicted to painkillers, and quite heavily at that from what Kira said, there was no engame to this, she just did what her brain thought was needed to fulfil her addiction. That's what addictions do to you, they rob you of your capacity to think and act clearly and logically

    For a long time the American Dream seems to be nothing more than the hope you either have good health insurance or don’t get sick enough to bankrupt yourself

    If she was battling cancer, why was she not losing weight.

    Opiate addiction is no joke, my mother is addicted to percocets and stole thousands of dollars from me, at one point selling my car without permission because she needed money for percs. It’s devastating being family watching this happen to someone.

    Those pain killers will get you man. You’ll make up all kinds of shizz just to keep getting them. Luckily I got out of that life before I did anything too stupid to come back from.
    Good story Kira!

    100% The husband also knew of the fraud and participated in it fully! If my wife had so much as a stubbed toe, I would know about it.
