I honestly hope he can forgive me for not reaching out. I really hope he can. Im so fucking depressed about this situation.

Flam was cool - you would know him better than me, but I'm sure he would understand. We're all busy in our own worlds, and there's little to no way to know what's going on without direct contact like through PMs, Discord or @s. Especially on CE, where topics purge in 2 days and where he wasn't a very active poster.

I hadn't seen Flam for months, except for like one post on CE a couple months ago. Didn't even know he was having issues. I would have loved to talk to him like old times, in a rabb.it room laughing our asses off at Baki the Grappler, but I had no idea he was in a bad way.

If I heard that he was sick, I don't know if I would have donated to his GoFundMe - my puny Australian dollars only go so far, and the thought of Flam dying wouldn't have even flashed across my mind. If things were looking particularly bad, I might have thrown a few dollars towards it, but maybe I wouldn't have in the hopes that things would work out regardless.

As it stands, I didn't even know he had a GoFundMe. Now he's gone, I would relish the opportunity to give him a few dollars in the hopes of giving him a helping hand. But until he died, and though hearing about his GoFundMe I realised that this situation had stakes I was unaware of, I couldn't have told you if I would have donated money or not. If I knew the stakes, then things might be different. But I didn't know the stakes.

No matter how long you might have known him, regardless of prior history with him, chances are you missed information about his situation or opportunities to get in contact with him through no fault of your own. What matters is that you loved Flamazide during his life, and given the chance you would have tried to help him out. Life might have gotten in the way, but what matters is that you cared in the first place.

Again - I'm sure you knew him for longer than I did, and you would have a better handle on his personality. I don't want to put words in a dead man's mouth. But I think, based on my experiences with him, that he would forgive you. I don't think you could have known things would end this way - none of us did until we heard the news. So please - don't beat yourself up.
