seeking a Marvel-miracle for a dying fan

(this is a repost - this same request is being posted on /r/marvelstudios/, /r/marvel/, and /r/movies/,)

This is a serious question regarding fandom and a dying person (not me, I'm fine). It's not a subject I'm bringing here without reservations. If this is too depressing or squicks you out I totally understand that. You can skip this post; no hard feelings.

I know someone who's dying of ALS. If you don't know what that is, you can go here for details: https://www.als.ca/about-als/what-is-als/ It's bad. I mean confined-to-bed, ventilator, and feeding tube bad. I don't know her personally, but she's a good friend of a good friend, and that counts in my book.

Here's the thing: she's a huge Avengers movie fan. Avengers 4 is slated to come out in 2019 and probably she won't be here for it.

A buddy of mine tried to start a Twitter chain to alert various celebrities and groups in the hope that they will let her in on how the movie ends/general plotline/possible clips. You can read the post here: https://twitter.com/RobinWolfraim/status/1000899727121100803 and search #spoilersforchantelle if you want more. Please contact the original twitter poster for additional information on Chantelle, what this is about, and how you could help. Even a retweet would be appreciated.

The lady in question is not able to travel anywhere. None of us have cash to throw at this nor do I want to raise random funds with no clear direction on what to use them for. She's an adult so there's no "make-a-wish" option here. I have no idea if Marvel or Disney would be willing to risk spoiler leaks or if this is even feasible, but we're gonna try.

We're in the process of sending emails and letters to both Disney and Marvel. If you wish to send a request on her behalf yourself, you can find the links on their contact page here: https://www.thewaltdisneycompany.com/contact-us/ Please contact the original twitter poster, Robin, for details if you wish to do so before you send.

This feels like a thing the internet can group-source, but I have no idea how this could be accomplished. The clock is ticking and if this is gonna happen in any form, it's gotta happen soon.

Thanks for sifting through this. Any and all help or suggestions are appreciated.
