My Mother's Savage Daughter needs our help

Donation protected
Karen Haakenson-Kahan, know to many as Wyndreth Berginsdottir, has been diagnosed with Lewy body dementia.

Lewy body dementia (LBD) is a progressive form of dementia that affects thinking, reasoning, and information processing. It's an umbrella term for two similar dementia subtypes: dementia with Lewy bodies and Parkinson's disease dementia. Both are characterized by brain damage caused by Lewy bodies, which are abnormal protein deposits that build up in brain cells.

Many people know Karen/Wyndreth as the author of the powerful song "My Mother's Savage Daugher" and many other songs. (The cover video has been viewed 624k times since it was first posted 16 years ago.)

Her husband, Harry/Vlad, needs financial assistance to care for her. He is self-employed and is under-insured as many who rely on the ACA are. Karen, too, has been under-insured and they need our help now.

I know we are an incredible community of very caring people and are hoping that we can come together and help
