Manuscript copyedit offered for charity

I'm offering a manuscript copyedit of up to 100,000 words in a benefit auction to help a fellow writer with cancer. I don't know Bridget Zinn personally, but she and I are represented by the same literary agency, Upstart Crow, and I'd like to do everything I can to help. Here's the link for the auction site: http://bit.ly/bridgetauction
In addition to my copyedit, there are many manuscript critiques up for bid, as well as other items.

Here's the info from the auction website:
Auction: Season of Love and Hope
Starts: November 22, 2010 08:00 AM CST
Ends: December 04, 2010 09:00 PM CST


All proceeds from this auction will go to Bridget Zinn and Barrett Dowell. Bridget was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer in February 2009. After receiving treatment in Portland for 18 months, Bridget and her husband Barrett are now traveling to Phoenix for one week every month for innovative treatment at the Cancer Treatment Centers of America. Not all of their costs for this promising treatment are covered by insurance. Bridget & Barrett's friends and family are rallying to help them pay the bills so that they can focus on Bridget's health and kick cancer. Artists, authors, and other friends and acquaintances have donated items in the spirit of love and hope.
