Medical expenses can eat up a fortune over time.
He had to/did sell many coins at ~$100 shortly before the huge run to above $1,000. ~source = recent article

Let's donate more before the generous Doge community takes the lead.
Sorry....
He still has 2000 coins for his kids. He did great stuff but not everyone with ALS is a millionaire.

That would have been almost 2 million USD, but with the BTC prices sliding I don't know when he'll convert them to cash.

Thank you, Hal.

Here's the address for the Hal Finney donations: https://blockchain.info/address/18wfs69iiLUivru32EmVu4bmvrunBLptyN
I made a decent sized donation. The work Hal has done on both PGP and Bitcoin deserves a few bucks from me, regardless if he already has money or not.

His medical expenses runs up very quick into enormous amounts, god bless you Hal. Could not have been where we are today without you guys.

he needs to sell his coins, or deposit them to SatoshiCoin to get into heaven

Not to discourage donating but Hal has had a substantial amount of coins he kept from the early days, enough to leave his kids a big fortune (he posted here about it, search for his name).
EDIT: FTFY
Click on any of the links I have provided.
Then tell me, apart from his condition, does that living room look like it's huge?
Because I can tell you that I do not have much money but my living room is at least 3 times as much.
Medical bills bro.
I have seen what it does to one first hand.
Do you know much much it costs a cancer patient to get chemo, MRI, etc?

I must admit that I did not know that Hal Finney had ASL.
I also have to admit that it brought tears to my eyes seing a genius like Hal in that position.
I don't know how many of you know this but Hal needs our support:
