I have Keratoconus which is a genetic condition that causes the cornea to turn cone shaped. It makes it hard to see, because bright lights form halo effects, obscuring the vision, and making it difficult to read, and in my case, draw. The day before my birthday, I went to a specialist, who gave me three options; Cross linking eye surgery, (which is still considered experimental in the United States, and not covered by insurance) Intact lenses (also not covered by insurance) or complete cornea transplants (Which is covered by insurance, but much riskier than the other two listed). 

Although there is some hope, since the Intacts is currently going through trial runs and studies for it to be approved by most insurances, I will learn by october, if I will be an acceptible participant for the study, and receive the intacts at either a reduced price, or not pay at all.

But, worse case scenerio, I will have to pay $5000-9000 per eye.

I cannot afford that, on my walmart salary. My family is barely skating by with what we have, and we still struggle every month to make ends meet. There is absolutely no way we would be able to pay for this surgery.

And, that really scares me. 

As an artist, and a writer, I depend so much on my eyes. Keratoconus is not curable, and will only worsten, if they go untreated. I NEED this surgery, but I can’t pay for it, with the few hundred bucks I get from putting up with walmart customers.

So, I turn to you, Tumblr. This is very hard for me to do, since I was raised to believe that if someone can work for their money, they very well should, and reserve the free help to the people who truly cannot help themselves. But, if you feel like you can, and want to donate, please feel free to send that money to my Paypal, at maryzolgarcia90@yahoo.com

If you want to help in another way, please spread my Commissioning Info or feel free to commission a piece of artwork from me directly by sending me an ask here, note me at my Dev.artor Email me your information at the same Email stated for my Paypal.

Simply re-blogging this really helps as well.

Thank you for taking your time for reading this out.

“The princess demands snacks!” Izzy said, and then, when DJ poked her, “And her robot demands juice!”

Fanart for copperbadge’s “Dot to Dot,” in which Clint’s daughter Izzy meets Tony’s son DJ (who used to be a bot). They get marker on the blanket fort. Exhausted-Dad-bonding ensues.

Izzy’s story starts in “Hawkeye and Anklebiter.” 
DJ is from scifigrl47’s “Tales of the Bots“ Universe. 

AHHHHH IZZY AND DJ

Best costumes. Bb cosplayers of tomorrow, these two.

A New Way To Tie a Scarf 


Because fall is closing in on us quickly.

that’s a knot used in rock climbing that’s actually pretty badass it’s really secure

So trying this with my 4th Doctor Scarf.

SCARF WEATHER IS COMING 

I AM SO EXCITED

I DO NOT WANT SUMMER TO BE OVER YET but cool scarf knots are cool

I’ve been informed that having this image on my hard drive is what confirmed for everyone that I’m a hipster. 

But….scarves

I totally used this knot as a measure of length to knit your entrelac scarf. It had to be long enough for that plus with nice lengths of tail to sit neatly or tuck away.

Sam’s fic is now on AO3! It’s awesome.

Just adding to the list of fills, though, I also wrote Pygmalion’s Folly, gen, pre-Iron Man, Tony-centric.
