I don't know what would happen if someone went public with abilities like Claire's. That she could heal herself wouldn't ping me much, but if she also told people about the healing properties of her blood ...

My grandmother has been in a nursing home for the last ten years, paralyzed on her left side due to a stroke.
My father has gone to great lengths to get shots and medications and such that he hopes increases his vigor and energy as he ages.
My ex-husband has had several heart attacks, is obese and has a lot of complications from basically uncontrolled diabetes.

The stroke was due to a blood clot. Surely Claire's blood could reverse the damage. I don't know about my father's case, but in my husband's, I'd think her blood could repair his damaged pancreas and from that, he might be finally able to lose weight and regain function.

I'm sure that everyone out there knows two or three people whose lives would be radically improved by Claire's ability. What people wouldn't be willing to give her for a single use of her power.

Really, I think she'd be mobbed. And if she turned herself over to the government for protection, then they'd milk her for the exact same thing, just a little more systematically and with less control in her hands.

My Big Boom story centers on this idea. I've been mulling it over for a while now. Got any thoughts you can toss my way? Maybe I can integrate them.
