Hey Facepunch!
A dear friend of mine, Izzy McKenzie, has been in the hospital for some time now. I'll use a quote from her Facebook to help you guys out with what is actually wrong with her.
[quote=Isabel]
"Basically, I’ve been in and out of the hospital and doctor’s office, and had all these different diagnostic procedures and tests done. It truly started within the last 2 years, but around December, it got really bad. It would take me forever to explain, but basically, I’ve been in pain almost 24 hours a day for the past 6 months. My stomach kinda stopped being able to digest things correctly, so I’d end up doubled-over in pain or nausea all the time. I’ll be honest, it was awful. It’s just been a really stressful and exhausting time, and there were points when I just felt so hopeless and useless and ready to give up, because I could hardly do anything without practically (or actually) crying because of the pain I was in. Just in this past week, the doctors have gained more insight into what the problem might be, so I’ve actually started to get better, finally."[/quote]

Picture of her. Used with permission of course. She's still able to smile...
She also stated that one of her motivators to get her though the trouble was the musical group, One Direction. Look them up if you want, I'm not going to put a video on here with their music (I know how that will go).
[b]Basically, if you click this link: [url]http://www.q102.com/common/shareme/index.php?linkid=yn7yz253h3650kmxns7yhdktc3[/url], and the page gets the most clicks, Izzy will get the chance to see and meet One Direction. She's had a really rough last few months, and she deserves this. It would mean the world to her. All you have to do is click, it'll take 2 seconds. Thank you so much everyone![/b]
Anything I can do, sure why not :smile:

Thanks so much. I know she'll appreciate everyone who has voted.
[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;36090791]Clicked it for both of you (As it is for her), good luck![/QUOTE]
Thanks!
Shes darn cute, so why not.
She at 560, and the #1 is 488 until the leaderboard updates. I'd say she's got a good chance.
Yeah, it's taken a lot of work.
Better to be safe anyway.
I clicked. Hope She wins
OP is a whiteknight
Jokes aside, best of luck to her.
Click'd
Best of luck to her
Aw damn, that must suck to be in that position.

Cheated a bit by using 5 proxy's
I bet you don't mind that :v:
Good luck to her, looks like she's winning
I tried the link but for some reason it says my IP has already been used :\
I'll try on my phone and iPod, I hope she wins :)

Not at all.
I just looked on the others' profiles. Alyssa Mangano is at 1200 clicks. Ouch!
Clicked, best of luck to her. :)
One Direction? Well okay. I did it.
I wish the best for her.
Thanks Rastadogg5 and AJisAwesome15.

Come on, Facepunch. Let's do something right for a change.
Maybe try posting it on Reddit.
clicked!
poor girl :(
clickety clickety clickety clack I have clicked
Sure, I'll click it
I positioned my mouse over the link and contracted the associated muscles on my hand to apply sufficient force to the left mouse button in such a manner to depress it to ensure electrical contact within the mechanism which controls the action commonly referred to as "clicking" sending an electrical impulse to the associated integrated circuits which, through processing, directed me to a website wherein my vote has been registered
I think I did it
clicked it, good luck!
Clicked!
I clicked, this is definitely worthy of a second of my time. I wish there was more I could do
Dwatring, if your friend needs to talk to someone, get her to contact me, I can definately relate to what she said about

As I've been in a similar position, except for 14 years now, every waking minute ranging from pain, to agony to excrutiating pain. And Believe me, I know its hard to get people to sympathise/really understand, if they haven't been in a similar situation themselves.

I'll mention you when we talk again! I'm sure she'd be glad to have someone to relate to.

I would love to make a reddit page, but I'm very new to reddit (I know) and I'm having troubles. Any help?
