Alexander Shulgin, the one-of-a-kind chemist who crossed a diamond with a
pearl, is in the hospital after a stroke.   Friends are suggesting that
donations can be made via the second link on this erowid.org page: Support
the Shulgin Collection.

Update: More details are emerging. Family friend Greg M. writes that:

[Tuesday (11/16)] “on the way to the hospital for a scheduled test, Sasha
had a stroke. He has been struggling for six months with an ulcer on his
left foot that won’t heal, hoping to avoid amputation. Sasha & Ann have been
in serious financial trouble for some years, and the coming medical bills
will be a burden they can’t bear alone
