It is hard not to be overwhelmed by such sadness. I feel, the list of patients shouldn't be so sad. There should be, at the right, a panel of patients who have been treated, to make it more upbeat. And the goal, is to make patients from the left go to the right. I hope you see what I mean. If it was less depressing, we wouldn't shut out from the cause, from so much pain to deal with. Because as it is, to help it means to accept there is so much pain in the world. Whereas if we see also the treated patients, then we know at the same time that there is help too, and it isn't so bad, so the reason doesn't shut out. This is only my opinion. Maybe it works better like that. (edit: nevermind, I saw there are fully funded people at the bottom. I feel like a fool, now.)
- Splendor 11y agoHey there. I see you've added an edit but I still thought I might be able to add something. I'm currently a Universal Fund[0] member on Watsi and I've found it to be a very positive experience. Instead of feeling like I'm making a hard decision between treatments for many sick people I just give a set monthly amount and then each month I receive an upbeat email letting me know which patient received my funding. I also like that my Watsi profile page shows me how many different countries my donations have reached. [0]: https://watsi.org/universal-fund https://watsi.org/universal-fund
