arduinna: a tarot-card version of Linus from Peanuts, carrying a lamp as The Hermit (Default)
Sandy Herrold -- [personal profile] sherrold, Media Cannibal, Clucking Belle, vidder, writer, reccer, and all-around amazing person -- has been battling cancer for some time, and it's not looking good at this point.

Even if you don't know Sandy personally, odds are that she's touched your life in fandom somehow. She's been a bright light at the center of my fannish experience almost since the day I arrived, open-hearted and generous, down to flying thousands of miles for a weekend to help teach someone to vid. Even when she's snarky or cranky or flat-out pissed off, Sandy always seems to be full of joy, deep and strong, and she lights up any room (and any fandom) she walks into as a result.

If you've ever wanted to tell her that you love her, or she made you laugh or think or cry, or she taught you about vids, or writing, or fandom, now would be a really good time.

[personal profile] movies_michelle has a bit more detail on what's going on and how to send cards or flowers, and where to send donations if you want to do that.

If you want to contribute to a bouquet or get a note to Sandy, [personal profile] talking_sock is going to be printing out notes from people before she flies out on Saturday; if Sandy isn't up for visitors, she'll leave the notes and flowers.

Please consider leaving a note even if you don't know her personally/directly. She should know how treasured she really is.
