Help Me Get Orthodontic Treatment So I Can Eat Again

Hi, my name is Lauren Abbott and I’m 23 years old. Over the past month and a half, I’ve had to stop eating solid food entirely due to severe dental and orthodontic issues. My wisdom teeth are impacted and have made my bite go off. I have been suffering from a crossbite. I’m now on a liquids-only diet, and my weight has dropped to 77 pounds. Every day feels like a struggle, not just physically, but emotionally too.

What I need is orthodontic treatment that can help me eat again and get back to living a healthy, full life. Unfortunately, the cost of treatment is more than I can afford on my own, and that’s why I’m reaching out for help.

This situation has made even basic things—like eating a meal with friends or having enough energy to get through the day—impossibly difficult. I want to get better. I want to be healthy.

Any contribution, no matter how small, would mean the world to me. If you can’t donate, sharing this page would be a huge help too.

Thank you so much for your kindness and support.
