HELP Jason Jacenko aka Atomika... A GoFundMe to ease medical costs for a recent stroke he suffered!

When I first started dabbling into the designer toy scene, the Kidrobot message boards was the place to be online. Not only was there lively discussion, but it was the place where artists posted their work, talked with their fans, and dropped special releases on the regular. It was the place where I fell in love with this scene and in turn got to know many artists... one of which was Jason Jacenko aka Atomika. Jason's style was unlike any I had ever seen, and with each custom he created, it really blew me away with his painterly style and technique... and most of the stuff he made was super detailed and extremely troubling, creepy cool, as if it was ripped out of a nightmare. That being said, "Jason suffered a massive stroke on September 7th, 2013 that resulted in 2/3 of his brain being removed, his entire right side being paralyzed, and neurological disorders that affect him both mentally and physically... his own personal nightmare! The neurosurgeons didn’t believe Jason would make it through the night of his surgery as he suffered several brain bleeds during the procedure BUT, because he is an amazing bad ass he did AND, he is now relearning how to do what brings him joy (and income) in life with his left side!" A GoFundMe page has been started HERE (thanks to ElMaz), and if any of YOU out there are willing to donate to help, now would be the chance to do so. He means so much to this community, and every little bit helps in his recovery... so do what you can!
