- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 28 Dec, 2025 at 01:00 pm – Sun, 28 Dec, 2025 at 09:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Life can change in an instant, and for our dear friend and beloved musician, Barry Seelen, it did.

On August 20, 2025. Barry suffered a severe stroke that left him with left-sided paralysis
and significant challenges with speech and memory. Since that day, he has shown incredible courage and unwavering determination as he fights his way toward recovery.

Barry’s journey has been long and diﬃcult. After a month at Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston, TX. where he underwent a complex cerebral artery bypass surgery to restore blood flow to his brain, he spent another month at Encompass Rehabilitation Hospital.

He is now continuing his intensive therapy at the Neuro Restorative Rehabilitation Center, with plans to transition to outpatient rehab early next year.

Every day, he works tirelessly to regain strength, mobility, and independence. He is now able to walk with a cane and luckily has full use of his right hand, working diligently to bring his left hand back to life, driven by his dream to play music again.

Let’s come together and show how powerful our community can be by raising funds to help our beloved friend and musician in these challenging times.
