Cajsa is Seriously Injured IRL and Needs Our Help With L$ Donations & Medical Supply Purchases

Above: Casja's home in SL and donation-collecting dog -- click here to teleport.

Cajsa Lilliehook's long-running and much-loved New World Notes' column did not run today -- because today, Cajsa was at her nearby wound clinic, undergoing debridement.

She has, as Cajsa puts it to me, "an infection in my leg, complicated by an impaired immune system. It's shallow but very broad, so quite painful."

Retired in real life, this condition requires medical supplies that aren't covered by her insurance.

If you want to help Cajsa with these supplies, you can go here to her Amazon wish list.

Or if you prefer, you can visit her lovely home by the water in Second Life, and click the dog by her door, which accepts Linden Dollar donations -- click here to teleport.

And do post your Get Well Soon and other messages to Cajsa in Comments below!

Please stop by her house and drop a few Lindens for Cajsa's recovery. Praying for your health and quick recovery.

Hi Casja, so sorry to hear and best wishes for your full recovery soon!

Hey Hamlet, thanks for publicizing Casja's situation so we can help ;-)

Drop by her Linden home and give her dog some Lindens, it's just a teleport away...

Thanks so much for the good wishes, the bandages and all the support. You are so lovely and generous. I have to reassure you, though, that that article on debridement scared the heck out of me. They searched for the scariest pictures.

Mine was okay. They numb the area with Lidocaine and the doc used the world's tiniest ice cream scoop to scoop out slough, the stuff the body produces to fight infection. Slough interferes with healing. They remove it many different ways depending on how serious it is. The ice cream scooper method is the easiest in my opinion. It was far easier than I expected because this wound doctor did not feel it necessary to scrape back the margins.
