48One of my fandom friends, smudley, is fighting to survive. She is the bravest person I know, not to mention the kindest, most creative, smartest, and undoubtedly one of the most wonderful people in the world. smudley, I don’t care that we don’t know each other in person, just talking with you over fandom things and meeting you in WordWars is like having warm sunshine greet you when your days have been nothing but rainy and dull. You’ve made an impact in my life, dear.
I want you to keep your spirits up. I want to help you keep your spirits up. So this post is to do exactly that.
To my other fandom friends and smudley‘s friends I don’t know, please help me give a little brightness back to her life.
Comment here with anything you want that is inspirational, cheerful, heart-felt, humorous to make her laugh. Memories or fun ficlets or pics of Jim and Bones – a personal gift – it all counts!
Please let her know that you are thinking about her. Thank you.

We’ve not known each other for long smudley however you are always so encouraging and eloquent when giving your opinion on a story. Hell you even made my sister, drivvenwrinth, blush when you praised her story. You’re a strong woman and I have hopes that you will pull this latest set back even stronger than before.
Be well dear friend and know that you are well loved. 
{{big hugs}} you are wonderful. thank you so very very much.
Thinking of you. Go Here. *hugs & love*
In the spirit of that wonderful story by abigail89, I thought I would add this little gif. Just picture it, Smudley, this gorgeous healer coming your way, taking care of you.
{{big hugs}} oh, you amazing person, you. thank you, hon, this really helps.
{{big hugs}} you’re amazing. bless you and thank you.
Thanks for telling me about this post, Writer_klmeri. My friend, Mz S, I’m thinking of you all the time and pulling for you. We’ve known each other for ten years and I want another ten years with you–maybe more! Just picture you and me writing a story about Starsky and Hutch, 65 years old, watching Despicable Me and laughing their asses off at the minions.
{{big hugs}} you’re bee-yoo-ti-ful. thank you, hon.
We don’t know one another particularly well, but I’ve always loved your enthusiasm, how warmly you respond to everything. I also respect how hard you’ve fought to make your own decisions in regards to staying at home. Thank you for being such a bright presence on my flist, and I look forward to many more rambly livejournal comments! <3 <3 <3
{{big hugs}} you’re awesome. thank you so very much.
Oh Ms. Smudley, you are without a doubt one of the most delightful people I’ve met through Live Journal. Your encouraging, detailed feedback on everyone’s writing, your own fabulous stories, your sunny personality and adorable Southernisms always make me grin from ear to ear. I’m always so happy to see you pop up in Word Wars. And you know what a kick I get out of your little starred swear words. ;-) I so admire your ability to stare your health problems in the face and kick them to the curb. It takes such guts and spirit, and you have both in spades. You’re just an amazing, special person and a joy to know. I have no pretty pictures to post right now, but check your PMs because I’ve sent you a link to a little something there. Love you so much, sweetie. {{{hugs}}} Thinking about you and sending all the good vibes I’ve got.
{{big hugs}} you’re phenomenal. thank you, hon, so so much.
Hey Smudley, ♥ Thinking of you my darling, sending you my heart to hold on to, and my love and shoulders to lean on. And some pretty pictures to entertain you along the way ♥ ♥ ♥ Pretty boys…
Pretty girls… 
and hugs… 
{{big hugs}} you’re a miracle. thank you, hon, thank you.
smudley! I’m sort of a fandom turtle, I just pop my head out once in a while to see what’s up, but I was so happy when you began writing in the Trek sandbox! I saw this yesterday, and it made me laugh, and I hope it makes you laugh too. or click here (http://youtu.be/VpRvB5g02vc)! Just think, one day, that could be us! :D I also saw you like some Avengers and Steve/Tony too, so have some funnies. ?
{{big hugs}} you’re just perfect. thank you so very very much.
Hay KAM I know that things couldn’t be more dificult but you are strong as few people are… you managed to fight this for so long… you will manage decates more… you will win this again and again… I BELIEVE IN YOU… very much…:) <3 <3 <3
{{big hugs}} you’re a blessing. thank you, hon, truly.
Big hugs back…your way kind… I’m so bloody happy to be hearing from you…
Back again with some more goodies! smudley, I am so glad we discovered we both had a love for the band Garbage. Here are three songs from their new album @ smudley.zip (so mediafire won’t kick my butt for uploading music >.<) Also, you know what makes me feel better? GARFIELD!
Then of course there is always browsing deviantart… here are two of my favorite Trek comics from there: 
{{big hugs}} you’re the awesomeness. thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Hey Smudley, I’ve enjoyed many Word Wars with you! I hope you are feeling better. I’m thinking of you and sending you virtual hugs, smiles, and an amusing picture of my daughter at halloween. (I hope this works, I fail at LJ!) http://kel-1970.livejournal.com/14306#cutid1 ~Kel
{{big hugs}} you’re tremendous. thank you, hon, and bless you.
I love you so, so much. You’re an inspiration, one of the most fantabulous cheerleaders/feedbackers a girl could ask for, and a wonderful, gorgeous, glorious friend. I can only hope I’m half the person you are, bb, and that I’ve brought half as much happiness and laughter to your life as you’ve brought to mine! <333
{{big hugs}} you’re just lovely, hon. thank you so, so much.
Thank you so much for telling me about this post. Smudley is a beautiful and wonderful person – what a light! A little story for her is here: http://ashkevran.livejournal.com/55631
{{big hugs}} you’re a treasure. thank you and bless you, hon.
Hi KAM – We don’t know each other…but I’ve read some beautiful Starsky&Hutch stories you’ve written and I just loved them so much. Well, I just send you *positive thoughts* and *Big Hugs* and I really hope you’ll get well again!!!
{{big hugs}} thank you so much, hon, you’re an angel.
Hey bb, just sending some good vibes and pretty pictures your way. I hope it makes you smile a bit. :) This will either make you smile or gag slightly:
Not Kirk and Bones, but… 
An event at my church, because this is Trekkish, geeky goodness: 
PUNY GOD! OUT OF THE CHAIR: 
GIFS! 
Karl’s eyes OMG: 
And because we love Karl (in a WETSUIT) even when he’s being a total fandom troll: And finally, I wish I could send you an actual pin, but I don’t know where you live, so this is from me to you: 
{{big hugs}} you’re a superhero, seriously. thank you and bless you, hon.
*hugs back* I’m not, but I can try to be. I wish I could do something (anything) more to help. YOU, my dear, are amazing and brave and kind. The world should be your oyster. ♥
Hey KAM, I wanted you to know that I’m thinking about you and hope that you are finding a few bright moments to hang onto. I’ve told you before, how much I love your stories, especially Affirmation III, and your response to my LoC reflected that precious spirit which you own and gladly share with others. It hurts to know that you have been struggling so hard but please realize that you have many friends who admire and love you and we are all hoping that life will become kinder to you. Take care, lovely lady…xt
{{big hugs}} you’re wonderful. thank you so very very much, hon.
It’s been such a pleasure having you aboard for all the silliness! Wishing you the best and all the love and support your friends and family can provide. And now, pretty men…
{{big hugs}} you’re super-terrific. thank you so, so much.
My pleasure, bb! Give us a shout any time you need a hottie or two thrown your way… [[super hugs back]]
Thanks for letting me know about this post. smudley, I can’t write fic for you, but I wanted to link you to some photos that I hope you might find soothing or inspirational (or in one case, just cute *g*). These are places I’ve been that I thought were particularly beautiful. (Not my pics, alas.) Quiraing, Isle of Skye, Scotland Fes, Morocco Milford Sound, New Zealand Caye Caulker, Belize South Sawyer Glacier, Alaska (D’aw!) Lots of good thoughts coming your way. ♥
{{big hugs}} you rock. thank you, hon, truly, and bless you for this.
When things have been dark, Smudley has brought a little light into my life with her comments on my journal. Smudley, you are one of the nicest, sweetest people I know and you have all my hopes and prayers. I don’t have any cute pictures to add but take all my good wishes.
{{big hugs}} you’re an inspiration. thank you, hon, so very much.
Sending hugs and prayers…I hate the big C and the pain it causes. Your stories have brightened my days. I hope you are surrounded by love as you battle on.
{{big hugs}} thank you, hon, you’re a treasure. i don’t have cancer, tho, thank goodness. i have life-threatening autoimmune diseases that are now non-responsive to treatment and attacking my vital organs and systems. it’s a battle, but not the same kind of battle that cancer patients have to fight. thank you so much for your hugs and prayers and i’m honored to know that my stories have brought you reading pleasure.
