A New York City woman who died Sunday from cancer has raised enough money to erase millions of dollars in medical debt with a posthumous plea for help. Casey McIntyre told followers in a social media message posted by her husband that she had arranged to buy the medical debt of others as a way of celebrating her life. The posts included a link to a fundraising campaign started through the nonprofit RIP Medical Debt .

McIntyre's husband, Andrew Rose Gregory, posted the messages on Tuesday, and the campaign quickly blew past its US$20,000 goal. It had raised about US$140,000 by Friday afternoon, or enough to buy around US$14 million in medical debt
