He currently lives in Germany with his wife Brigitte, and usually comes to the United States once a year for a few weeks in October and November.<p style="margin:0px 0px 24px;padding:0px 16px 0px 0px;box-sizing:inherit;border:0px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-variant-numeric:inherit;font-variant-east-asian:inherit;font-variant-alternates:inherit;font-variant-position:inherit;font-variant-emoji:inherit;font-weight:400;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;font-optical-sizing:inherit;font-kerning:inherit;font-feature-settings:inherit;font-variation-settings:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;max-width:100%">Recently, he was in the hospital for 5 weeks because of a nerve inflammation in his leg. A few years ago, he also experienced a stroke, and although he recovered, he now requires full-time care and assistance with mobility. Despite these challenges, Stan dreams of returning to California in October 2025 to connect once more  - and likely for the last time in-person - with the community he has touched so deeply. We are launching this Gala to provide the support he needs.<p style="margin:0px 0px 24px;padding:0px 16px 0px 0px;box-sizing:inherit;border:0px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-variant-numeric:inherit;font-variant-east-asian:inherit;font-variant-alternates:inherit;font-variant-position:inherit;font-variant-emoji:inherit;font-weight:400;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;font-optical-sizing:inherit;font-kerning:inherit;font-feature-settings:inherit;font-variation-settings:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;max-width:100%">With your support, we can make this journey possible. Funds raised will cover the specialized medical care and travel needed to bring Stan and Brigitte to San Francisco and Esalen.<p style="margin:0px 0px 24px;padding:0px 16px 0px 0px;box-sizing:inherit;border:0px;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-variant-numeric:inherit;font-variant-east-asian:inherit;font-variant-alternates:inherit;font-variant-position:inherit;font-variant-emoji:inherit;font-weight:400;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;font-optical-sizing:inherit;font-kerning:inherit;font-feature-settings:inherit;font-variation-settings:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;max-width:100%">People donating $5,000 or more are welcome to join an intimate Gala with Stan Grof.
