I really really like her as a person.
Having experienced the body image criticism in Hollywood, what is your advice to young girls dealing with the same treatment from their peers, and a response to those who judge others based on appearances.
BOUNTIFUL, Utah (KUTV) — After weeks of fighting their health insurance's denial of coverage, the Bateman family from Utah has not only secured a prosthetic arm for their 9-year-old daughter Remi, but has also helped another child receive the same life-changing device.
Remi's mother, Jami Bateman, shared that after their insurance provider Select Health deemed the prosthetic "not medically necessary," the family launched a GoFundMe campaign. The response was overwhelming, with the fundraiser quickly exceeding its goal.
"The GoFundMe got reposted. We exceeded well over the goal," Jami said. "I was contacted by the CEO of CrowdHealth. They decided to pick up the bill and paid for Remi's arm in full. It's just been amazing."
Because the CEO offered to pay for Remi's arm, the Batemans used the funds raised to pay for a boy in Maryland's prosthetic arm.
The viral story didn't just help Remi — her family's campaign also caught the attention of another family with an 8-year-old boy named Taj from Maryland, who will now receive the same "Hero Arm" prosthetic.
"I wasn't able to do this for Taj for Christmas," Taj's mother said, "but thought 'maybe next summer, we'll be able to get [the arm]'."
Jami Bateman hopes their story brings joy to both families.

I don’t want a relationship like Romeo & Juliet, I want one like Gomez & Morticia. 🖤
Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket? Free Drinks and Bad Advice.Enticing Propositions, Nebulous Boundaries, Hijinks Ensue. General things that catch my interest, could be anything…Sebastian Stan, Winter Soldier stuff…probably with some porn sprinkled in too..... I'm all over the internet and don't always remember where I got things so if you see a picture or something and I don't have it credited correctly, please just let me know and I'll correct it or if it's yours and you'd like it taken down I will.
