Would Immensely Appreciate People Reading This!

Hello folks!


So, I can't remember where or not I posted here but basically my GF suffers from asthma, but can't afford insurance, medical bills or any of that shit to get it sorted properly. Any way, we're looking at buying her a CPAP machine to help her breathe. My girlfriend is waking up twice every night now from asthma attacks and she's rapidly working her way through the little medicine she has left.

Why am I writing about it here though?

I am going to put the money I can spare towards buying a CPAP machine, but I still need an additional $200 to $300 to help with buying the damn thing. I understand this is a lot of money, and I'm hoping I've come up with an idea of how I might maybe be able to raise a chunk of that money...and because OWF has been for me, a refuge of kindness, and because I have come to know some of the most amazing people ever on this site, I am hoping maybe a few people might be able to help...

I have decided to embarrass myself

As you guys know, I am a 6ft tall bloke, not exactly small by most people's definitions of the word and, though I am not exactly manly, I'd not call myself feminine either. So what better way to raise some money than by dressing up in drag?

In the hope of raising some money I am pledging to go full on drag queen, I'm talking shaved legs, beard, arms, moustache etc, dressing up in a dress or whatever, make up, the full lot. An English Conchita Wurst but without the beard and nowhere near as fabulous. Any way, I know some people here would probably like to have a good laugh at my expense, so I'm wondering if anyone might be willing to help me by chipping in a couple of dollars so I can buy this machine for my girlfriend and stop her from having these really fucking scary asthma attacks.

I'll be taking a fuck-tonne of pictures, providing I can get the funds, and hopefully...yeah...I dunno maybe some people will show us a kindness and have me forever in their debt.

Also I absolutely 110% understand times are tough and more over this sounds like a fucking Unicef charity ad. I also completely get that people do not really know me all that well and that is after all just a forum, so I'm not expecting a single person to donate, but I figured I'm gonna be posting something similar to Facebook as well, so why not here also.

This is OWF. You'd probably do better offering to appear nude.


But I don't have any cash spare at the moment, I'm afraid.

Let's get this started, I'm pledging 30€.

But to be honest I rather have a picture of you both (and the machine) then you in drag.

I've set up a GoFundeMe account. The link is here! (wait, no it's not, it's down there!)


Also I've sourced a cheaper one with equally good reviews so hell I'll do it for $110. Why not.

Here's the machine btw: http://www.cpap.com/productpage/resp...p-machine.html

and here's the pledge site thingie: http://www.gofundme.com/9dlnos

e: Also that's a good idea Xavier, I will be posting a picture of us both with the machine.

Okay guys we already hit the goal. So no one else need donate! Thank you to the one OWF who single handedly donated the amount in full and then some, we can actually buy a better model now potentially and if not I will be resending the extra, you lovely, amazing, fantastic little shit. <3

Apparently your name is anonymous to the public but I still know who you are so I will be thanking you privately. >.>

Seeing as you raised even more, you now have to dress in drag and then sing at next years eurovision.

Very glad to hear things went well in the short time it takes me to do school. Would donated, but outta cash, and it's ended anyway. Hope that thing helps, my step-father has it and it helps him sleep a lot.

Now time to start the funding blog to get the money to do proper drag. Girl clothes are spendy (At least over here, I assume it is over there too.).

Someone donated 110 bucks to you? Sweet!

I had a question though, you live in the UK right? Don't you have free healthcare over there that would cover a fairly simple thing like asthma?

In any case I much rather donate to things like this than any TV charity.

STM's Avatar
Well no not quite $300 haha, but more than enough that I can help pay the rest. And I do live in the UK but I'm living with my gf in the US right now and she's brassic.

Also yeah Job the clothes do seem a little expensive but I figure I can get a pair of denim booty shorts and a tank top fairly cheap. I've got all the make up I need on my gf's chest of drawers. :P

Well, I well and truly crushed the amount needed, and to put your minds to rest (to the people who donated), any extra money will either be going towards apparatus not included but still needed for the machine to work (masks and spare parts), or if another person I know pays in a little like he said he might (on a different forum) then we might actually be able to upgrade and slightly better model (a bit quieter).

We're just having a little bit of trouble with the money right now, Amy's bank declined the payment which means we have to wait for the money to go back into GoFundMe so that I can put it in again under her name and bla bla bla. Any way I aim to have the CPAP machine and the pics within the next two weeks. Even if that means I do the pics before I show off the CPAP.

Thanks so much as well Xavier, immensely appreciated. <3
