<div><strong>Hello! My name is Elizabeth Lee</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My dear friend, Bet Williams, recently had a serious accident while on tour in Germany, and she needs our help. This fundraiser is to cover her medical costs, loss of income, physical therapy, and essential living expenses. Bet has given us so much through her music and friendship—let’s support her during this challenging time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>The Accident</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On Friday, October 25th at about 6:30 in the evening, my dear friend and colleague, Bet Williams, and I finished the soundcheck before our concert in east Germany. The stage lights were dimmed to prepare for the audience to enter. I made my way down the front steps off the stage when I heard a loud noise and scream behind me. In the darkness, Bet had fallen off the side of the stage. As I turned around, she was limping out from behind the curtain, saying, “I think it’s bad! I think it’s broken!” Her foot was dangling at an odd angle in her boot. An ambulance was called and quickly arrived. They brought in a stretcher, braced her leg, and took her to a nearby hospital, where doctors discovered a complex, severe break in her leg and several in her ankle.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>That night, Bet underwent her first surgery to stabilize the bones, followed by a second, more extensive procedure a week later. She was recently released to convalesce in Hannover with friends—a doctor and a nurse—where she is now receiving excellent care.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>The Impact</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The remainder of the tour and all of Bet’s upcoming performances have been canceled, causing a devastating loss of income for this freelance artist. She cannot return to the U.S. yet and likely won’t perform again until April 2025. The doctors have warned her that walking normally may be a challenge going forward.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>How You Can Help</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Bet’s medical expenses, physical therapy, and living costs are overwhelming, totaling at this point around €45,000 ($47,000). Insurance has not yet provided coverage, and likely won’t, leaving her in a precarious financial position.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Your donation will help Bet cover:</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• Hospital bills
</div>
<div>• Physical therapy
</div>
<div>• Living expenses
</div>
<div>• Loss of income
</div>
<div>• Legal assistance to navigate insurance
</div>
<div>• Transportation
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Any contribution will make a difference in Bet’s recovery.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Let’s Help Bet</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please donate and share this fundraiser with others who love Bet and her music. Every bit helps to get her back on her feet—literally and figuratively. It takes a village!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you!
</div>
<div>Elizabeth Lee

<div><strong>A Note from Bet</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>“I can definitely feel some new pieces emerging out of all this. I imagine a song about gratitude for sure. Yeah, this sucks, and has been extremely painful, but people go through much more than this, all over the world, every day. I am grateful to have such good friends, family and support. Wow! I really am grateful! Thanks, Elizabeth! Thanks everyone!”
