To all...
Dykes of Hazard comedy tour recently had a major scare, which has led me to write to you all and let you know whats going on, as well as to ask for your help.

Last week, headlining comedian  and dear friend of ours Slim Bloodworth was admitted to the hospital in Ottowa. Slim had been feeling ill after our last tour, and had stayed in Buffalo with us for a few days in an effort to recooperate. This was last Monday. By Thursday, Slim seemed to be feeling better and headed to Ottowa to play some shows. Having cancelled shows  on the previous days, she was anxious to get onstage.
Slim got to Ottowa and as in so much pain the good folks at Absolute comedy got her to the hospital and took great care of her. Thanks to the folks in Ottowa!!
While in the hopital,Slim was diagnosed with Gall stones, which are ridiculously painful, for those of you who don't know. WHile being treated for the stones, Slimmy had a seizure, which led to Slim going into cardiac arrest. She pulled through, and made it back to us.
So, slimmy died for a minute or so. Scary shit, right?
There are a load of tests yet to be done to explain why a 34 year old in decent health would have a heart attack. 
here's where you come in.
Slim is in Ottowa with her car. Her home as well as her girlfriend is in Houston.  We need to get Alex (the gf) to Buffalo, and she will be driving slimmy back to houston where a cardiologist will be waiting to fix her up.

all of these things are going to cost dollars.  And as most performers know, insurance is almost non exsistent in the touring artist world.
There are multiple benefits being planned, and DOH comics will make it to as many as possible to donate their time to the cause. If anyone has ideas for fundraisers or anything of the sort please let us know. Pass this on to your friends. ANY help is appreciated, and for those of you who know Slim, you know that she is one of the kindest,  most giving people we know, and the first to pitch in to help others.

your thoughts, your good energy, your prayers, whatever you believe in, please take a minute and throw some positive love into the air with Slimmy's name on it.

thanks
