Dental Implants

Hello,

My name is Seung Kim, and I need your help. I have no problem paying my monthly bills because I have two jobs, but I am struggling due to debt. I have debt accumulated from caring for four sick family members. I don't expect to get help from my kids because they are helping with the bills. They are also going through their struggles. They also sacrificed their youth to care for four sick family members with me.
I cared for my family members out of love, but caregiving for ten years impacts you physically and mentally. I had to prioritize them over me. Insurance didn't cover everything. I couldn't buy anything for myself because I had to prioritize paying for supplies, medical equipment, and separate groceries (because two required specific meal plans). Moreover, I had to max out a few of my credit cards for my mom's funeral service when she passed away in 2019. She always told me she wanted a funeral service, so I wanted to honor her wish as her only child.
Then, the pandemic hit. I had a well-paying job because I taught kids TKD in private schools. Unfortunately, I lost this job when covid hit. I couldn't even take advantage of EDD because I didn't qualify. Therefore, I used my savings and credit card to suffice. I worked hard to pay off the debt but more accumulated—obstacle after obstacle. I often felt so hopeless because nothing seems to be in my favor.
When I thought I was lost at the end of the tunnel, I discovered TikTok. TikTok has been my outlet for the past two years. If it weren't for my TikTok family, I don't think I could have continued to strive. I met so many amazing sisters and followers who adore and admire me. They loved me for who I was and didn't judge me. So many even offered to help with my husband's supplies and supported me. On top of that, my TikTok family even helped me with funeral expenses when my husband passed away this June.
I know I received much love and support. I understand why some people are mad and decide to unfollow me. However, the reality is that I am still struggling. Over the years, I never had the time and luxury to care for myself. I need four dental implants, but I cannot afford them. I want to take better care of myself.

Thank you
