This is bad news and etc. The basic premise is that she's getting sued by a hospital she was in to get her to pay some medical bills, but can avoid the collection agent (a lawyer I'm presuming?) from filing charges with what's called a "good faith payment", ie: showing she has intent to pay the medical bills. But, in order to do that she actually needs to have moneys first, so I'm spreading the word out that you can help her and stuff.
Let me stress though that this is not a handout and please don't consider it as such. She is taking relatively inexpensive commissions for vector artwork, which isn't the most common thing around for artists to sell. The nice part about vector is that you can print it on any size paper you want and it still comes out looking crisp. So, if you're interested in some vector badges or chibis of your character, check it out.

Woah woah woah get a fucken lawyer.. "Good faith" payment is a fantastic trap. They can use that when/if you contest the bill in court later as proof you "agreed" to owing the debt.

OP
I think part of her problem is that she's not able to get a lawyer, and I did mention that to her regarding sending the money signifies acknowledgement that the debt is yours. The problem is, she can't afford to keep any sorta lawyer on retainer, it would seem

Blargh yeah lawyers are expensive. But there should be free legal aid in her area where she could at least get 30 minutes of advice on what to do and what not to do.
