Help Kara Bennett get wish for 21st

Donation protected
Hello.  My name is Tiffany.  I made this account for my daughter who had requested me to for her wish to be fulfilled to be able to have a beautiful, semi-formal  ballroom 21st birthday party in honor of her.  You see she has been  ill all of her life since the age of 4 due to a debilitating muscle disease called mitochondrial myopathy.  She was then put on oxygen at night to sleep but things kept getting worse from there.  Each year as she continued to decline it took more and more from her which led to numerous hospitalizations over and over.  This disease affects her lungs greatly, her muscles and now her heart and lastly her GI tract which is a complete nightmare and she suffers greatly from it.  Over the past three years she has been suffering more than she ever has.  Her stomach stopped processing her formula (she has been tube fed since age 10) and no matter what the doctors have tried she still has extreme pain and extreme nausea many days of her life from the age of 17 til now.  She has lost the ability to stand, pull herself up, walk or even brush her own hair anymore.  She can no longer eat or drink at all which she used to be able to do in addition to the tube and has to be fed through her central line (veins/iv).  She is either confined to her bed or wheelchair many days due to extreme fatigue or when she is up she is doing therapies to try to help get her body moving.  If you can help us give her this party I would greatly appreciate it and I hope that just because anyone reading this knows us please know that I don't want you to feel obligated to help I know people have their own troubles too.  Her birthday is January 25th and the party will be feb 7th so I don't have much time to book it but I have the place in mind that she really wants.  Thanks in advance for even reading this and God bless you.
