Hey we're not accusing you of doing anything untoward with any donations but goons gave you money so we own you and you have to answer all our questions, by the way we don't think you've done anything wrong.

have you attempted to prove that you were in the hospital during the times people are specifically concerned about?

Look, it is a lot of money, and we aren't asking for you to give refunds nor are we accusing you of misappropriating the funds. All we said was hey this summer you mentioned a lot of hospital visits but the posts locations don't add up can you explain it. And yet you continue to dodge the question and are instead using a lot of words to paint us as the ones who have done something wrong. We are just asking for accountability, that is all.

OP has a partner who did a lot of positing on their behalf (OH NOES ACCOUNT SHARING) while OP was doped up in the hospital. There's your IP explanation.

I’ve offered to prove to Jeffrey that despite the IP weirdness I was, in fact, in the hospital like I said I was. The issue is that nobody actually wants to listen, everyone has made up their minds and it hurts because I made so many wonderful friends during this extremely lovely time in my life and I don’t want them to be hurt.

The "IP stuff" is a pretty big deal, it's not some "weirdness" you can try to wave off. It shows that without question, posts were made from your SA account using your home ISP when you said you were in the hospital. If you were posting from your phone in the hospital, you would have your phone's IP address. If you were connected to the hospital LAN via wireless, you would have the hospital's IP address.

It's not "weird," it's like DNA. It's definitive.

So you're being asked to explain that, and you're saying you can't.

If there is an valid explanation that's escaping you, then it sucks that you can't remember it. Otherwise, this is not a good public look.

I totally agree with how bad the US healthcare system is. Health care is a right, not a benefit. Period.

Everyone should watch Michael Moore's Sicko (if you haven't already).

Um, may I suggest a compromise? Why doesn’t 50sGG give the name of the hospital, and a bill number? Goons can then call up, and say “I would like to make a payment to bill 85356789 please”. I’ve never had to prove my identity to pay a bill. Then goons know for sure it’s going to a hospital treatment. Yes, you might accidentally get doxxed. But if it saves your life, it should be no big deal.

That would probably be a nightmare. Hospitals in the USA are notorious for wanting your insurance info, and treating patients very differently if they don't have insurance, or if their insurance doesn't cover something, even if the patient is financially wealthy and can pay the bill themselves without any problems.

I am sorry. I have no vices for you to exploit.

This might be a real struggle given the reading comprehension demonstrated in this thread, but the people white knighting for OP are actually just making this ordeal into even more of a shitshow by posting. Sorry but despite your brainworms if you make a significant sum of money in donations from a community on the internet off your personal tragedy, and a few inconsistencies arise, the admins are well within their right to ask a few questions.

The OP could have avoided literally this whole thing by saying "my SO posted for me while I was in the hospital" and I don't think the admins have given any indication that they really wanted to look much harder than that at this travesty, but in typical goon fashion, OP chose to have a meltdown and post this thread, so

Some of my posts after my surgery were made by my wife who was allowed to visit me for one hour a day because of covid restrictions and before she left drugged up me would think maybe I should update people who are giving me money with what is happening to me.

Again, I’ve sent via PM everything I have. I don’t think I can ask the hospital if they held on to half of my lung to prove to internet strangers hell bent on hating me that I was in the hospital. Believe what you want.
