#TeamGracieP - Winning Against CRPS

Donation protected

Gracie, a radiant beacon of love and resilience, has faced the relentless onslaught of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), known as "The Suicide Disease," for five arduous years. Amidst a maze of 38 doctors, endless medications, and therapies, she has remained steadfast in her fight. Once immersed in the vibrant energy of school life, her days are now consumed by the solemn rhythm of full-time care and pain management. Heidi, a steadfast pillar of love and strength, made the agonizing decision to set aside her beloved career as an English teacher to stand by Gracie's side through this tumultuous journey.

Consider the weight bearing down on every aspect of their lives – not just the emotional toll, but the relentless burden of financial strain. Gracie, now confined to a wheelchair, grapples with the unyielding assault of chronic pain ravaging her body. The unrelenting deluge of medical bills crashes upon them like waves, threatening to drown their hopes and dreams.

Yet, amidst the shadows of despair, there glimmers a flicker of hope. Our mission is clear: to come together in support of the Pousson family, aiming to raise a minimum of $100,000. This sum holds the promise of Gracie's newfound hope – a revolutionary therapy offering respite after years ensnared in darkness. Jimmy, Gracie's father, paints a portrait of their journey, describing how her tears, once an unending torrent of agony, now diminish to a solitary cry each day.

However, looming amidst these rays of hope is the harsh reality that this vital therapy remains beyond the reach of insurance coverage. Jimmy and Heidi, their financial resources depleted by the relentless demands of Gracie's care, now face the chilling prospect of relinquishing the very lifeline that has offered solace to their beloved daughter.

We stand at the brink of transformative change – the opportunity to rewrite Gracie's narrative, to shield her from the clutches of CRPS, and to defy the grim statistics that haunt those ensnared by this insidious affliction.

Your contribution, regardless of its size, possesses the power to tip the scales in favor of hope. Share this tale of fortitude with your communities, for within our shared humanity lies the strength to uplift one another.

Let us forge a united front alongside the Poussons, a testament to the unwavering solidarity that refuses to let them navigate this shadowed path alone. Your generosity can serve as the beacon illuminating Gracie's darkest nights. Thank you for embarking on this journey of healing with us.
