Social media provided more help and answers for a patient and advocate than their local hospital. Hashtags on Twitter can change conversations about important healthcare topics and crowd funding can help patients if they have a good Twitter presence. Stickers and street art spread awareness and gain power through perceived importance which leads more people to ask about and support important causes.

12. The more stickers that are out there the more important it seems.
The more important it seems, the more people want to know what it is.
The more they ask they ask each other.
It gains real power from perceived power. -Shepard Fairey
