Spreading the love...to save Lori's house

Since posting here about the plight of Lori Hall Steele, a 44-year-old single mom and freelance writer, who was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's Disease and chronic Lyme disease last year, lots has happened. There has been a lot written about the writer and her immediate crisis (losing her home), and it seems that hundreds of her fellow freelancers have rallied around her to help.
