The Blanchard family faced a severe problem in 2022 when Elizabeth fractured her shin bones after suffering a fall. As per her Go Fund Me page, Blanchard was out to see a sunset when the accident happened. She wanted to take a picture of the sunset but realized that she had forgotten her phone at home. As she returned to bring her phone, she slipped on acorns and fell down a hill.

Her daughter Carmen shared an update on Elizabeth’s health on November 23. In the Instagram post, Carmen had undergone surgery to place a 14-inch rod and multiple screws. She also added that the fracture would have a lasting effect on her back and health.

To support the family financially during the troubling times, her friends Lara Larkin, Vanessa Valmont, and Rebecca Prephan set up a Go Fund Me page. The page has collected over $15 thousand from 153 donors.

As of February 2023, Elizabeth is recovering well. However, the doctors have advised her not to do heavy lifting until at least March.
