David Vigil has stomach cancer. He’s been fighting it for a while now, but without health insurance, the 24-year-old is having a hard time paying for the medical procedures he needs to battle his disease.
So he’s turning to the internet.
Vigil, who runs a company called Vigilante Leather (and whose Uncharted-themed work has been featured on Kotaku), is hoping to raise $US60,000 on IndieGogo. The funding campaign ends tonight.
“I’ve done my research and I’ve seen how these fundraisers have worked out for people in need and I can only pray that this can help me in my time of need,” Vigil writes. “How things are going I know I had to face my fear and ask for help and I’m doing just that.”
