I'm thinking that the best way to get money to her would be through a Western Union transfer. Would any trusted (OTC-rated) members here be willing to do a WU transfer? I'll pay WU's ridiculous fees, plus 0.25 BTC.

If you have a better idea on how to get cash to her quickly, I'm certainly open to ideas!

Just to be clear. Are you proposing: you pay BTC to a forum member and that someone does a USD transaction for you through Western Union?

Yup. I'd just send her money through WU myself, but I don't have enough that I can dip into right now. Also, I'd probably need the transaction done tomorrow or the day after. Coordinating in different time zones sucks!  Undecided

Where is she? perhaps it would be more convenient or cheaper in fees to find a bitcoiner near her, to receive your coins and help her exchange it into the FIAT she needs? Maybe you would find a bitcoiner who wants to sell bitcoin for the same FIAT she requires?

Which continent is she stuck on?

All the 'what ifs' here are a good therapy session.

Provide a few more details and you might find something faster and cheaper than Western Union.

What continent?  Better yet, what city?

How much do you intend to send?

Does she (or anyone she knows personally) have access to a bank account where she is?

How fast does she need the money?

IRC PMd.

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.

Thanks for your offers to help, everyone. Just came to say that this is all sorted out now. She ended up not needing my help anyway, so I guess Bitcoin doesn't get to come to the rescue today.
