She wasn't suffering from a tetanus infection but good try I guess.
[QUOTE=Thlis;40624549]Vs death?
For life saving treatment that has been proven to work, yes you will.[/QUOTE]
if you come out of the situation being in crippling, life altering debt without a high opportunity for work, it's really going to depend what's worse on each person you're asking. For me, I don't want to get out of a operation that leaves me in life altering and crippling debt for a long, long period of time.
I doubt it.

This wouldn't have happened in a socialist society!

Are you sure it was Tetanus? I've been given a Tetanus booster shot almost every time I've been in for a checkup. It's something that can be easily avoided and fairly easily cured, as far as infections go.
This YouTube comment seems, odd?

Ha. I was going to* make a comment explaining your scam, but I see you're not allowing comments to be made freely. I have nothing against transgenders and I was almost ready to donate to your cause, but I did some digging and I'm so glad I did.
You disgust me. Taking advantage of so many people who just want to help save someone's life. You are the worst kind of person and I hope you get only what you deserve.

The* irony is that transsexual surgeries are actually life saving. Way to belittle an entire group of people who already have to suffer a difficult life.

Well it is trending on Reddit now:

if her indiegogo campaign was really to get her surgery done
uhhhhhh
[editline]poope[/editline]
let me expand: i honestly don't feel it's indiegogo's place to provide medical funding. if it was a scoliosis operation i still wouldn't like it.
[QUOTE=rovar;40624463]It's weird to admit. But when things like this happen I go here and just try to make people feel better. I know it seems ridiculous, but just knowing that hopefully, what I say could save a life helps me feel better about these kinds of things.

Thanks for the link. I took a look and think I've learned a few more things to be able to communicate better with friends and others that are depressed or suicidal.

i take it you know many people who are happy to live in poverty and are ever going to actually make it out of that poverty
Well, after a bit of scouring the cesspool of the internet, I found this.
[B]Anonymous 05/13/13(Mon)01:40 No.189513408 i watched it live. was kind of boring. she was laying down in a bed then she took some pills or something i couldnt tell, and then the channel was shut down by a twitch admin before police arrived or anything so i just saw her laying down on her bed[/B]
We need confirmation of this, but this is 2 people who have said they have seen the thing live. Both said the same thing.

A 4chan thread where half the posts are jokes about what DSP would complain about isn't that credible.
I don't know, wasn't she under a lot of pressure? She might have faked the suicide to kill off her internet personality and therefore removing all responsibility from donation money and obligations as a somewhat popular indie developer.

Matched the same post from another person within not only the original thread will she posted. But also on a Reddit post.
The admin of the thread where Chloe posted stated that the authorities were contacted for sure, but they don't know if she's alive.
I don't usually get emotional over suicides... I often feel that it's their choice and they decide what they do with their lives, and I feel sorry for their families... but right now, this makes me feel bad. Yeah the campaign might have seen a bit iffy I understand that, but it still sucks pretty bad that someone desperately reaching out for help was met with this much hostility; and that the outcome of it all would lead to this.
[QUOTE=J!NX;40624370]I know you had a point but wow that was a stupid way to say it
it really won't be much use if she's dead after all.[/QUOTE]
Sorry if it sounded dumb, I just put it as simply as I could. If she was already at the point where she felt she couldn't take life anymore then I don't even want to think about how she'd feel with how people respond to her still being alive, not to mention how bad it would feel to even fail at suicide (I really hope that doesn't come out sounding wrong again).
Also: at the risk of sounding really messed up, I hope it wasn't a fake suicide.
I hope she's alive and gets the medical treatment she deserves.
It's fucking retarded that someone can't get the help they need in situations like this.

Sure they can! All they have to do is mug someone and go to prison. The healthcare is mediocre, but free!
Because, you know, [I]that[/I] makes sense.
(To clarify, I am suggesting in favor of universal healthcare, not letting prisoners die without medical treatment. Also the fact that I have to clarify this, and I'm sure I do because enough people hold the second opinion there, is sad.)
this entire case is sort of funny(minus the suicide)--
if she made the metal poisoning up it's indicative of how mental health support needs to be improved
if she actually has a life-threatening condition it's indicative of our terrible healthcare system
either way everything is terrible thanks capitalism
So I skimmed through this thread and found no link for confirmation (and no I don't mean leaked video, I'm not that sick, I mean some confirmation from people who knew her/autorities of some kind).
So we just have her words and a shot-down video of her supposedly taking some kind of "pills".
I would personally hold my horses to comment on this matter apart from this. Because for what it's worth, we all saw fake suicides on the Internet. I am not saying this is the case. I'm saying that we don't know.
what games did she make?

I don't know if I'd even call suicide a choice really. It's just the consequence when your desire to stop hurting overcomes your primary need to live.
Ok so if 4chan is right (that she decided to down alot of pills) and that other posts are correct (that the authorities were called) then there is a possibility that her stomach is/has been pumped and is in surgery to remove the pills. The problem is if anyone gave the authorities the correct address or if they did some emergency calls to twitch to get people there.
Just throwing this out there just because she took alot of pills of "something" doesn't mean it was a lethal dose. Honestly people will try anything, I knew a guy who took a shitload of Mucinex to try to commit suicide, to say the least he was fine. Also keep in mind she did this on WEBCAM, which is a good indicator that she probably isn't 100% in her conviction to commit suicide but legitimately wanted someone to help her. Not to say that it doesn't mean she didn't take a lethal dose of whatever but just something to think about. Also lol at the above post "surgery to remove the pills".

A pump will not take them out and depending on how many and what kind it can be lethal and they would need to go in and take them out.
Holy shit, I donated to her page when It first opened, heard it got closed down and now this. Poor girl.
[QUOTE=MaddaCheeb;40624101]Suicide is childish and selfish no matter how you put it. Instead of getting help, you choose to end your life earlier than planned. You force everyone that ever knew you to live with the memory of your death for the rest of their lives.
And if you're religious, suicide guarantees you a spot in hell.[/QUOTE]
can everyone who's armchairing this shut up please?
i mean really have you experienced this? it's beyond getting help, it's when a human being has been pushed so fucking far that they have only one way out.
And that's why you don't use a fucking fundraiser site, shit like this is guaranteed to happen
thats why you don't [B]depend[/B] upon a fundraiser site.
but still.
Whoops!
