A Sister Siren needs you
Proclaimed by: Lyon
Proclaimed from: Crystal City, Missouri
Proclamation...
Dear friends and family,
Back in June I asked you to help a dear Sister when she fell ill and was hospitalized. The need is still great. Bel's condition is going to be one of life-long recovery. Months of hospitalization and specialized nursing care have been adding up. Household bills still need to be paid and Bel's business has been moldering without her since her illness started.
We, her friends and adoptive family, have banded together to organize a benefit auction to help raise funds to pay for some of the multiple expenses. If you can attend the benefit, we'd love to have you there. If you can donate items for the auction, time or money, we would be thrilled if you contacted either myself, Robynn or Kitten for details. Even if you can't donate anything right now you can still help by forwarding this message to as many people as you can letting them know that Bel needs their help.
Below is the most recent information from Robynn concerning the auction. Thanks for reading.
Blessings,
Lyon
Greetings Everyone,
For some of you this will be new news. For others this will be an update. As many know, one of our own, Beltana of Sona & Bellawyk, is in trouble. Approximately three months ago she contracted Guilliame Barre Syndrome. GBS has no known cause or cure. It is a neuro-muscular disorder which disables and attempts to destroy the body's nervous system, which effectively paralyzes the body, often including the diaphragm which controls one's ability to breath. GBS also permanently, severely impairs the immune system.
Beltana got lucky. A doctor recognized her illness and started aggressive treatment relatively early into the disease. Beltana started out paralyzed from the neck down, and has bravely battled her way back and is now learning to walk again. Her recovery will be a life long battle. As I said, her immune system is permanently compromised. What for you and I would be a simple common cold can easily turn into pneumonia for Bel. Fortunately, Bel also happens to be extremely determined and stubborn when it comes to facing adversity. This aspect only serves to help her recovery. This is where the pagain community, friends, and loved ones come in.
Beltana has been finally discharged from St. Johns, Springfield. She is now in treatment at the Missouri Rehab Center, 600 Main - Rm. 504, Mount Vernon, MO 65712. Any cards, letters, or flowers sent will help her keep her spirits up as she will be reminded that she is not alone, that we love her and are thinking of her.
Next is the benefit auction. It is official now. It will be held Saturday November 8 at IAFF Local 73, 4271 Delor, St. Louis, MO 63116, from 7PM - 11 PM. We are working on donations of food to be served, and there will be live entertainment.
For those of you who have already sent donations, thank you very much. For those of you have already made plans to donate, I also extend my thanks. Please send all remaining donations to R. Hope 5235A Delor, St. Louis, MO 63109. If the package will require a signature or need to be picked up from the post office or UPS, please address any shipments to D. Hope. Also, please extend the word.... so far a good number of wonderful donations are being acquired due to word of mouth.
I would also like to thank Mr. Peter Zettl of Zettl Photography, a very dear and long time friend of mine, who has generously agreed to help with producing the flyers to promote this event.
Thank you to others such as Jenadrienne Charlesworth who have helped promote this event and thus have helped in acquiring donations as well as publicizing the auction.
None of this would be possible without all of you. Beltana is my Sister, one of the few for whom I would lay down my life. I cannot begin to express my gratitude to everyone who are making donations, publicizing, and working so hard to help Beltana. If anyone has any ideas toward helping Bel, please contact me directly or contact our Sister, Kristen Hanks at flykittin@yahoo.com.
For those of you who cannot make this event, we understand. We appreciate your kind support. For those of you who will be able to be there, I look forward to being able to thank you in person. If you will be coming in from out of town and need a place to stay, please let us know in advance. Again, thank you ever so much for your support.
Blessed Be,
Robynn (aka Darryl E. Hope EMT-P)
