Need to make $5000 for medical expenses.

Hi. I am a regular reader of HN. I am posting this under a anonymous username, I hope no one minds.

I am currently in a bit of financial distress, and need a little over $5000 to pay some medical expenses.

Any suggestions on how I can do this?

I was hoping to make a portion of it by providing some kind of freelance service online. I am a very good web designer and am skilled with Photoshop and Illustrator, however I dont have a portfolio or any client testimonials (since I dont do this professionally).

Is there anyone here who needs some kind of web design? I could design logos, websites, user interfaces for your apps, or even print designs.

Please contact me at stefanowebaria@gmail.com. Thanks.
