About Help Bring Karen Witt Home

We are friends of Karen Witt trying to raise money to be able to afford the resources Karen will now need to get out of the hospital and hopefully move to her own home.

In January 2018, Karen nearly died. She couldn't breathe, had no feeling or movement from her neck down to her toes, couldn't eat or talk, and was hooked up to machines.
Today we get to hear her voice again, but she is trapped in a hospital bed with a health issue that has caused her paralysis: Arteriovenous malformation – or AVM – is a group of abnormal and poorly formed blood vessels (arteries and veins). They can be found anywhere in the body, and because they're so poorly formed, they have a higher rate of bleeding. It is a condition that is as rare and unique as Karen Witt herself. Of all the outcomes of this condition, quadriplegia is not the one she thought she'd be facing at this time.
True to her fighting spirit, Karen is determined against all odds to breath on her own. Karen's doctors have implanted a diaphragmatic pacer (diaphragm pacing is the rhythmic application of electrical impulses to the diaphragm to provide ventilatory support for respiratory failure).
Karen has recently had the tracheotomy removed and she is now breathing without aid for multiple hours during the day and night much to the shock of her Doctors. Maybe a testament to singing being chief among her loves as Karen Witt is an accomplished singer and songwriter.

Some amazing musical artists have agreed to be part of this Auction to raise money to bring Karen home.

They will travel to your home and put on a private concert for you and your friends and all money raised will go directly to Karen's cause.
