I posted this in the Video Games forum, but I thought I'd post it here as well, as more people usually view this.
I don't often post stuff like this, but this is something we can all get behind regardless of what gaming "community" we are a part of. A well known and well loved gamer and moderator over at Teamxbox is fighting a battle for his life against cancer...and to keep his head afloat because of all the expenses. There is currently a fundraiser going on to help Sean set up by Teamxbox founder Shockwave. If you think this is some kind of scam then just check out, http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/18410/Sean-Martella-Fundraiser to see this is the real deal.
Donate a few bucks, a few pennies, whatever you can, and spread the word by digging, stumbling, Facebook linking, twittering, blogging the hell outta this story. I know how great this community is, and I know I'm confident you'll help my buddy out.
If you're on Facebook (which you probably are) join the group and invite your friends.

If you're on Digg, then Digg the story. It is already in Gaming News.

I know none of you know him, but he's a good friend of mine, and a great person. Even the littlest donations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
