In memory of Edith Terrell

Hamilton and Kristen are starting this fundraiser to honor the life of their daughter, Edith Terrell, who recently passed away. Edith was diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder called lissencephaly, and throughout Edith’s life there were many stays at the children’s hospital in Greenville, South Carolina. Many of those hospital stays were spent in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, where Edith and the whole family faced some of the hardest and most emotional moments of their lives. Through those experiences, Hamilton and Kristen saw firsthand how deeply important comfort and support can be, not only for a child in critical care, but also for the family standing beside them through every difficult day and night.

This fundraiser is being created in Edith’s memory to help provide extra comfort for children and families in the PICU. In a place filled with fear, exhaustion, and uncertainty, even small acts of comfort can make an overwhelming experience feel a little less overwhelming. Once the fundraiser goal is reached, Hamilton and Kristen plan to donate the funds in Edith’s name to the Prisma Health Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. By giving, supporters can help bring care and compassion to families walking through some of the same painful moments Edith’s family once faced. Please consider donating, sharing this fundraiser, and helping honor Edith Terrell by supporting children and families in the PICU when they need it most.
