Living ThroughThe awareness desk / Living Through the Pain
A living directory of CRPS events, orange-lit landmarks, support groups, walks, and stories worth sharing. November is the spotlight, but the community doesn't disappear on December 1.
The official 2026 Color The World Orange schedule listed the Kansas City Power & Light Building, Waldo Water Tower, and Meyer Circle Sea Horse Fountain for November 2, plus downtown Kansas City for November 1.
These are scheduled listings, not independent confirmation that every illumination happened. If photos or verified follow-ups emerge, we'll distinguish them from the original schedule.

Dispatches / stories beyond the calendar
Coverage from organizations and publishers. We link to original reporting and don't turn a research headline into a treatment promise.
New awareness briefing discussing recognition, Budapest diagnostic criteria, multidisciplinary care and clinician resources.
A community reflection on identity beyond CRPS, closely connected to the purpose of Living Through the Pain.
How we keep this useful
New events are added after reviewing the original organizer's listing. We keep the announced date, location, original link, and last review date. Once a date passes we label it as date passed—not automatically “event held.” Cancellations and confirmed outcomes deserve their own updates.
Editorial review: Nov 3, 2026. This is an independent, human-reviewed directory—not a live registration or booking service.
