I am sharing a template for an email I plan to send out to anyone and everyone.
Many of us have followed @cryptopie's Story.
I myself have watched and waited, in the hopes that a miracle will happen. That a philanthropic medical team would materialise.
We can not wait for someone else.
If you know of anyone.
Doctor
Surgeon
Charity
Politician
Journalist
Philanthropist
Please feel free to cut and paste the message below or amend it as you see fit.
Email it out to those people.
Find contacts for organisations you think may help. Either by providing the care needed, or getting his story a wider audience.
Many people are praying.
@cryptopie is a reverent man and appreciates your prayers. Those faithful people, please also use that faith to put into action the possibility of god working through you.
Share his story across other platforms.
We are a diverse group. Perhaps you have the connection in your life, that can save his.
This is the recent draft I have begun to send out to Australian based doctors and charities.
I am on a quest to restore hope for a man in The Philippines.
Arnold Martin is 39yrs of age and is suffering from Liontiasis.
I have met this amazing man via his blog.
In a desperate attempt to find help he has revealed his disabling condition to the world via an online blog 4 months ago.
https://steemit.com/@cryptopie
While many people sent small amounts of funds, well-wishes and prayers, his plea has not found the audience he needs to get the treatment he so desperately requires.
He is a very private man. He suffers from Leontiasis after many years of poor dialysis treatment.
The doctors available to him in The Philippines are not equipped to treat his case, and should he find a doctor prepared to try, he is unable to afford it.
Before he became I'll he attended university and had a full and happy life. As his body became effected by a mismanaged and late diagnosed endocrine condition, he himself became recluse.
He is cared for by his ageing parents and is at the mercy of strangers like myself to save his life.
Other concerned well wishers visited him recently to validate his story, and help him to access help from a wider global community.
He allowed people into his home for the first time in a very long time, in the hopes that it will clarify his genuine stuggle.
Arnold is a gracious, humble man. It is my fear that his humility will delay him in finding help in time to save him.
I have watched and followed his diary blog for the past months, waiting to see who will find him the help he needs.
I realised that the time to wait for someone else to act had passed.
Please will you join me in coordinating help for Arnold Martin.
I will not give up until he finds someone who will step forward. I'm sure you are in a much more networked position than I am.
Please will you be the person to begin to restore Arnold's hope.
He holds onto the little hope he has everyday, in the hopes that somehow his prayers will be answered.
This is his gofundme post in which he has outlined his illness.
https://www.gofundme.com/i-need-surgery-for-my-leontiasispls
If you are at all able to help me put a team of passionate doctors together, I know this is possible.
We are limited most by a world in which we feel like one person is powerless. But perhaps you have the power to persuade just a few.
Imagine what together you could achieve for my friend.
I hope you can give it some consideration.
Sincerely yours.
We can do this @cryptopie
Together this community has not even begun to show just how much it can achieve.
You have all given me a renewed hope when I needed it.
Now I ask you to help me pay it forward.
The Steemit Filipino community are rallying around him. @steemitph @luvabi @dandalion and many others. The Filipino community also welcome communication and suggestions for support at their discord chat https://discord.gg/uh4hC6
All funds generated from this post will go to @cryptopie
Again, THANK-YOU!
I have been following @cryptopie 's story for a long time now too,
and it has really touched my heart.
I would be so happy to hear that he has found the help that he desperately needs.

You are so far reaching. Lagos Nigeria. but i get the point here. However, Joshua isn't a healer, Jehovah is. Overall, money isn't always the solution either. Prayers work miracles

I agree... Everything is in Gods will... No one can heal, only God can heal by your faith... Just don't give up. God can see your heart if you really want to leave to serve him.

I have learned these things at Catholic school, but I do not profess to be a religious person. I do remember being taught that god works through people, and that people were given free will.
I have also learnt from Buddhists about karma. Thoughts, words and actions, and their power to impact lives.
Spirituality is an important dimension of health. It doesn't replace medical intervention. If a doctor possesses the gift of healing the body and the heart to share that gift, Why can we not consider this the work of god.
I do not believe that prayer will save Arnold's life. I believe it can bring together the people needed to do the work, and sooth and comfort the soul.
But Arnold does not want to go to god now. Doctors can help him extend his life and make it a more comfortable one.
I do not wish to challenge the power of prayer. When people pray for me I feel lucky to be in their prayers, thoughts, hearts. Denominations are not important to me, faith is based in love and love has power.
I only wish to motivate the faithful to use that faith, and their life to do god's work.
Not being conventionally religious doesn't mean I am not spiritual. I feel connected to Mr Martin and committed to doing all I can.
Perhaps that is god's work, my choice, a dimension of humanity.
@cryptopie has given to me. I have been isolated and working through health issues. He has me out of my own head, given me perspective and gratitude and distracted me from my own, comparatively less urgent problems.
Perhaps it is @cryptopie who is doing the work of god.
Maybe god is giving us the opportunity to look upon his face and see it's beauty. I see him, and I see beauty. I am thankful to have met him here and am enriched by it.
So I ask you to look upon his face and see the face of god, as we are all created in his image. And do all the good you can do to help this child of god.

Hi man, this is a great initiative you are doing, Im a graphic designer. If you want I can design a couple of t-shirts to sell in the community to help @cryptopie, we can sell them or we can make some kind of contest and gave them as a price, I'd love to design them and help in the ways I can, please let me know if you find this interesting or worth doing it.

@cryptopie? I of course defer to him for decisions. I have learned that he is brave but also shy. I can not speak for him, but I imagine he would like his image used with sensitivity, which I'm sure you would.
I think all initiatives are most welcome, he is sick and weak, and has to an extent handed his hope to the steemit community to help him. Yes please use what skills you have.

I've seen a lot of smack being talked about posts like this. I think it's a travesty that we are all here for the $$$ (those who say otherwise, lie), but are unwilling to help the most vulnerable among us.
"This is not what Steemit is for. " "This type of stuff will kill Steemit."
I beg to differ and disagree.
There are many of us on Steemit and this is exactly who we are and want to be. There is plenty to go around.
I've seen many people helped in my short time on Steemit. Would you take it back? Are you suffering in crypto poverty as a result of someone else being helped?
Naw, so why not get your little upvote finger out of your aaaaasinine ear.....and click in and do your part.
What goes around, comes around, my friend. Let's make a difference for Arnold. Can you imagine a day in his shoes? Do it. It costs you nothing.

Thank you. I'm not asking you to transfer funds. Just connect him to services.
I have done another post in which I hope to clarify his genuine identity . Then maybe we will see his story shared and the help he needs found.
I understand people are cautious, but I agree. What am I risking really. I risk not helping someone just in case I am deceived. I think potentially saving someone is worth the possibility of egg on my face. Thanks for the resteem. Following you.
