Get my smile back

As some of you may know, it has been a rough but at the same time eye opening time of my life. Just as times appeared to be going well, my family and I learned I had breast cancer. There followed a difficult time of treatment and focus on just surviving the horrible disease that took not only my breast and my ovaries but my dignity and threatenend to take my strength as well. It also brought about changes that  ended a 12 year marriage. One and a half years after this seemingly insurmountable battle, I was told the chemotherapy and subsequent radiation had comprimised my pancreas and I would now be insulin dependent to try and control my glucose levels and am expected to test and inject 4-5 times daily. These illnesses have served only to give me an even stronger will to live and enjoy each day I am given. I have since bought my own small home for me and my children and have worked hard to be the best mother and now grandmother that I can be. Somedays are much more of a struggle than others but I try to never forget what I am made of and how wonderful my family and closest friends have been. I am now faced with yet another obstacle. Each month or so I am losing or incurring damage to my teeth. I am told by dental professionals that this is a common occurance following chemotherapy and high glucose level treatment. Recently I met with a dentist that is willing to pull the painful and damaged teeth and replace them. I do work full time but am not the lucky recipient of dental insurance and find there is no program for someone that has an income but no access to comprehensive coverage. I truly just want to feel well and to feel confident again. I can overcome these diagnosis' and can try to live my life being positive and encouraging to others but the pain caused by the failure of my teeth is at times consuming and makes it difficult to have a positive outlook. This is now affecting my appearance as well and with all of the other scars that have become part of who I am it is getting more difficult to hold my head high. Please give if you can and I promise I will pay it forward when I have the ability to do so. I simply want my smile back.
