Skydiving Accident Donations for Constance
Donation protected
Hello, My name is Julia, and I am asking for donations for my amazing friend, Constance Echo Palmer. Connie is most known for her spectacular aerial performances such as silks, lyra, rope, trapeze, pole, stilts, and even fire breathing! Connie has performed all over the world at countless events and has worked recently as a stunt performer in the film & TV industry! She enjoys her small farm, knitting, and skydiving, which she has done for 13 years.
Last month, Connie had a terrible skydiving accident and didn't remember anything after entering her landing pattern until she woke up from surgery the next day. She broke her back and legs (left femur, right tibia and talus, sacrum, and L5, as well as some extra kyphosis in the sacrum and unstable lumbo-pelvic connection), but she is still fortunate enough to move her legs.
Unfortunately, Connie has had two surgeries, which are not covered under insurance. She has one more to go on her ankle, which is currently in an ex. fix. She is trying to avoid spinal surgery, but only time will tell.
It will be a long road, but Connie will be able to sit up and walk again.
Connie's medical expenses thus far have exceeded $77,000, and we do not know when she will be fully recovered. Her primary source of income has always been performance and teaching performance while also helping create an amazing aerial community. Please help Connie during these challenging times as she focuses on healing.
All donations will go directly to Constance.
