Hello fellow diabetics. My name is Erica Doering. I am a 28 year old
with Type 1 Diabetes. I'm having a Stand Up Comedy Fundraiser this
Thursday April 6th,  because I need an emergency viterctomy eye surgery
that is scheduled for April 11th and I don't have health insurance or
the cash to pay for it. I am lucky enough to know some of the best
stand up comics around and they are performing at the show. Louis CK,
Bob Odenkirk, Andy Kindler, Patton Oswalt, Dana Gould, Naked Trucker
and advanced clips of Wonder Showzen all hosted by Jimmy Pardo.
Adavance ticked available for 25.00 The show is this Thursday in
Hollywood at the Steve Allen Theater. Donations are encouraged and Jim
Gaffigan has donated cds and dvds to raffle at the event.
Anyways it's sure to be a great show. I hope you can come. Erica

------------------------------
Twelve to twenty-four thousand people go blind each year due to
diabetic retinopathy. So when L.A. comedy darling Erica Doering was
told that she needed an emergency vitrectomy within a few weeks to keep
from going blind - and she didn't have the health care to do it -
her fellow comics decided to look out for her.

The Steve Allen Theater will host The "Eye Care For Erica" Benefit
Show on Thursday, April 6th to raise money for Erica's medical
expenses and raise the roof with laughs.

The line up: Louis CK, Bob Odenkirk, Patton Oswalt, Dana Gould, Andy
Kindler, Naked Trucker and hosted by Jimmy Pardo with special advanced
clips of Wonder Showzen and an array of surprise guests that are sure
to bring home the laughs. See for yourself.

Advanced tix are available online for $25.00

Please specify # of tickets and name in the memo or subject line.
