Sad that funding for treatment may have been a factor in her death. If only there was universal health care.
I think she and her family were pretty rich tho.
If you read, she was estranged from her family and faced housing instability. Her post-acting life was not good and she needed social help long before her illness.
Wot? Read an article?
Ok. My bad. Yes, social support and medical access should be available to all, obviously. What a sad story.
Perhaps. But not enough they they didn't need a go fund me.
