This story just goes to show that online game guilds are far more than just having some helpful friends to play with!

One WoW player recently went through the epic boss fight of his life against a potentially terminal cancer... and was able to beat it! But like many people (and their families) who have to deal with a serious illness, it left him in a precarious financial position. And who came to the rescue? No churches, charities, politicians, rich local businessmen ... but his WoW guild!

Third week of March came, the time to retest and make sure the treatments were successful, the news was in I won the fight against not just an elite mob red spawn, but something many have died from And no, an epic didnt drop. Instead, I received legendary support!

So to all those out there who knock online gaming communities and say we are divorced from the real world, read right here about how one guild pulled together to help one of their guildmates and friends overcome a HUGE real life challenge!
