My name is Sarah Ptaszynski. My mother, Helene Coulon, is a loving Mom, Grandma to 3 grandchildren, and Daughter. She is a hardworking an amazing single mom to 2 daughters in addition to weekly volunteer work.
Back several years ago, Helene underwent some dental work at a dentist who botched several of the procedures. Now, over the course of the last year or so, Helene has paid out over $12,000 to correct some of the damage done by her old dentist. After seeking several opinions, the cheapest quote for her restorative dental work is $32,000 and the most expensive is $47,000 (that's AFTER the Insurance kicks in their 30%.)
Her teeth are falling out by the day, which is rendering her unable to eat anything other than soft foods and liquids. As a result, she's lost more than 15lbs over the last few months. Being unable to eat properly is taking a toll on her health and body. She needs several bone grafts, a sinus lift, a gum reconstruction and implants/false teeth. I am worried for her, as she is very concerned as to how she will fare if she were to become ill. 
100% of the money raised will go toward helping her to pay for her extensive dental work. I am hoping to help her at least get a few of her teeth done so she's able to eat regular food again , and help her with the financial burden of trying to figure out how to pay for this.
My mom has sacrificed so much for my sister and I- I wish that I were able to fix this for her. She is always giving for others (the people she volunteers for, her children, her grandchildren), I want to help her when she needs it the most. Most of all, I want my mom to be able to be there to watch her Grandchildren grow.
