gcreptile 10,964 Posted March 8, 2015 Lisa Bonchek Adams, "prominent online writer" who blogged about her cancer, is dead: http://time.com/3736283/lisa-bonchek-adams-died/ I'm mainly posting this because in the past 4 days, I "digitalized" my candidate list and googled a lot of people with cancer. It seems to me that "terminal illness fame" is spreading in the age of the internet. And I wonder if the DDP or other dead pools will have to adjust their rules regarding qualifying obits or about what constitutes fame.

Toast 16,131 Posted February 5, 2016 I see this person's death has been reported by the BBC. What did she actually do? "I knew that I no longer wanted to work for someone else in a 9-5 job. I couldn't be without creativity and I had to be true to myself in this next chapter of my life. Modelling is not as glamorous as one would think, I have learned. It's incredibly competitive. However, I was feeling a bit 'judged' as being a 'model' so being able to grow my business and work with other influencers and brands and negotiate for myself - that really has created a dream job with the marriage of the two sides of the industry."
