Help John talk again!

Donation protected
I am setting up a fund raiser for my brother John Ford, who has been battling cancer on his face since 2010.  He had it removed twice, then went through radiation and chemotherapy, all which did not work.  Then in December of 2011 he had a major 19 hour surgery where the doctors at OU Medical Hospital removed half of his face to get rid of the cancerous tumor.  His cheek bone and half the upper roof of his mouth had to be removed and replaced with a flap of skin from his leg.  Since then he has gone through 21 different reconstruction surgeries trying to rebuild his face.  He has been on medical disability for 4 years and now medicaid will not pay for the dental reconstruction procedures needed to create a prosthetic piece for the roof of his mouth.  This is needed so he can speak more clearly and be understood so that he can eventually go back to work and get off of disability.  Our family would greatly appreciate any financial help in this goal to get my brother be able to communicate and get back on his feet and independent again.
Thank you for your consideration,  Cindy Williams
