Dear Friends and Supporters,
As the team at The Temple Events, we come to you today with a story that weighs heavy on our hearts—a story of resilience and unwavering courage belonging to our dear friend, Elizabeth Bennett. For over a decade, Elizabeth has faced the uphill battle of Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD), also known as Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS). RSD is a debilitating neurological disorder characterized by severe, chronic pain, often affecting one or more limbs. The condition is accompanied by symptoms such as extreme sensitivity to touch, changes in skin color and temperature, and motor dysfunction. Elizabeth's journey has been marked by countless treatments, including consultations at the esteemed Mayo Clinic, yet relief remains elusive. Her condition continues its unchecked progression, robbing her of the quality of life and simple joys she once knew.
In 2023 alone, Elizabeth endured eight stays in intensive care units (ICUs), with additional stays already in 2024. Despite her unwavering determination, these challenges have proven to be formidable. Her body bears the scars of numerous surgeries and procedures, a testament to her relentless fight against RSD.
Once an avid photographer, Elizabeth found solace in capturing the beauty of nature and community events. Now, her hands struggle to hold a camera, a stark reminder of all that RSD has taken from her.
Despite her struggles, Elizabeth remains a devoted mother and community volunteer, embodying a spirit of selflessness and generosity that inspires all who know her.
At this critical juncture, Elizabeth's hope lies in seeking a new treatment option not covered by insurance. The costs associated with this treatment, including medical expenses and travel, are overwhelming. We ask for your support in rallying around Elizabeth as she embarks on this journey toward healing. Your generosity, no matter the size, will make a world of difference in her ability to access the care she so desperately needs.
In support of Elizabeth, the Brown Family Band will be performing a fundraiser on Friday, May 24th, from 7-9 pm at The Temple Events. All funds raised will go directly to covering the upcoming medical treatment Elizabeth will be enduring for the next 5 months.
Elizabeth's resilience serves as a beacon of inspiration. With your help, we can ensure she receives the care and support necessary to continue her fight against RSD. Please consider donating and sharing her story with your network. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in her life.
Sincerely, The Temple Events Team
