Help Parlin's family through this medical crisis
Donation protected

Parlin is an amazing artist, talented musician, hilarious story teller, loving daughter and fiercely loyal friend.
Recently Parlin suffered an inconceivable tragedy when a large piece of equipment fell on her, crushing her spine and breaking several bones, leaving her with a traumatic spinal injury and partial paralysis.
Through what seems like a medical miracle, her spine was reconstructed. Despite surviving, she has a long road of slow, painful, and difficult recovery ahead of her, and needs almost constant care.
Adding to the difficulty, this took place across the country from her family, and many months have passed as they wait for Parlin to be cleared to fly.
As well as a frightening amount of medical care, the family faces running two households as they spend as much time as possible taking care of her.
If you have ever met Parlin, she is a bright, beautiful, creative and amazingly warm human being. What she is going through is agonizing and terrifying and will affect the rest of her life.
We'd like to help the family out in this worst of times to allow them to focus on her recovery. Please help with whatever you can afford. Thank you so much.
