I need your help. Pain, fear and embarrassment have stopped me from asking before now. Those four little words are always so hard to say. As some of you know, right before the pandemic my mother passed. She had a history of bad teeth and was constantly in the dentist. I inherited this from her. All my best qualities come from her....but also the teeth. 

    The stress of her passing combined with quarantine and the pandemic sped up a process I’d been dreading my whole life. My teeth have deteriorated this year to the point where I have no choice but to have them all removed and replaced with implants. All of them.

    Over quarantine I met with many dentists over months and months and they have all said the same thing : because of the infection, movement, bone loss and risk of stroke and other potential problems - they must come out.

    Because of the pandemic obviously this process has been stretched out longer than it normally would have, but has to happen now. 

     Recently we found out my father has an inoperable  aneurysm and only has 12-24 months  to live - which is why I took my recent trip to see him in Seattle. To say I’m stressed to the max is the understatement of the year. I’m just taking things piece by piece as I can handle them. 

     Implants are expensive. Especially an entire mouth. I’m also scared to death - if I really admit it - but it has to be done. Any financial support you could throw my way would be appreciated more than you know. I need your help. If you are able to donate or share this page It would mean the world. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
