Help My Sister Get Emergency Ortho!

Donation protected
Hadassah is my sister. She is 14 years old and has Down Syndrome. She is super smart and fun. I love her very much. But all of a sudden my family has found out that we have to start her 2nd Phase of braces this Monday! It is an emergency situation. And we don't have the money.

I am 16 years old and I'm just trying to help raise the funds needed to get my sister the emergency orthodontic work she needs. I actually just got my GED and am working a part time job. I help where I can, but it's not enough. I need your help.

After a successful GoFundMe campaign my mom did for Hadassah a few years ago Phase One of her orthodontic care has been completed. She spent a year with a spacer and braces that stopped the collapsing of her upper jaw.

It looks on the outside like everything is fine. But not so.

We knew we would have to do a Phase Two of braces, but that was supposed to happen in a year or so. But after x-rays last week my parents found out that Hadassah is in danger of losing one of her permanant front teeth because of the way her canines are coming in and the crowding in her mouth (see the photos and the video). My sister must start orthodontic work now. She is scheduled to begin tomorrow (Monday, August 1, 2016). She will have to have braces on and all the different devises for around 2-3 years! She's really scared and nervous!

I am trying to help my parents and sister by raising $5,880 asap (by tomorrow) for this 2nd Phase of orthodontic work!

Thank-you so much for helping my sister, Hadassah get the work she needs on her teeth so that nothing happens to her permanant teeth. She has a heart of gold and I love her very much!

Note from mom: Maggie was so nervous to shoot this video, but she did it because she loves Hadassah. We do need the money, but I also want Maggie to feel successful, so I pray that her campaign fully funds in less than 48 hours. You must know that even though Maggie, herself needs orthodontic work she cares more about her sister and is trying to help the best she can. :-) I love both my daughters so very much!!! :-)
