So I got this message from amazing casting director extraordinaire, Bonnie Gillespie, and it was about "Uma."
My first thought was, "What's wrong with Uma Thurman?"
Erik Patterson - who has been a part of "12 of 12" in the past - has created a beautiful site. And there is another site as well GO HERE TO VISIT
From Erik: One of my closest friends in the world, Uma (aka Urp) (also known around these here blog parts as thedarkeruma)—family to me—had a brain aneurism burst this morning. Thankfully, she was in New York with her fiancé John and he was able to get her to the hospital. She was in surgery earlier today and now she’s under sedation, on a ventilator, because she’s got lots of blood around her brain. The doctors are keeping her under sedation for the time being, hoping that her body will rest and heal. That’s all I really know tonight, and I feel weird blogging about it except that I know how happy she'll be to know she has a blog post devoted entirely to her. (So Urp, when you wake up—like the guy in the bed next to you, who’s up and alert and giving the doctors hell—you’re going to see this blog post and you’d better be damned happy about it, okay?)
I just saw Urp and she’s in bad shape, but we have to have hope, so…
…if you’re the type of person who prays, please please please do some praying.
…if you’re not the type of person who prays, please think happy, healthy thoughts.
…yell a message to Uma out your window, as loud as you can. Make it as un-PC as possible, because Uma likes it that way.
…even if you read this blog and don’t know Uma…even if you’re just coming across this blog post, randomly—a blog reader passing in the night—please take a second to tell a dirty joke, think a hopeful thought, and send out some love into the ether…
Yesterday was "Vandalize the World for Uma Day." There are pics on his site.
Unfortunately at the moment, I don't have time to really post about all of this, other than to say I think this is beautiful and brilliant and everyone should pass the word.
