Hello friends. My mom is one of the most wonderful people you'll ever meet and has the most giving heart of anyone I know. If you know her, you know how true this is and may have even experienced her kindness and love yourself. Unfortunately, I'm writing because she could really use a little assistance right now and my family and I are not in a position to be able to help much at all. She is elderly and lives off of Social Security and things are VERY tight financially.

She has very basic dental insurance that only covers the bare minimum. She recently had a crown and still owes $800 for that. Now she is looking at extensive dental work on three of her front teeth. She has no funds to pay for the dental work needed and her teeth are getting worse day by day. Her dental issues are no fault of her own as many years ago she was on a medication that damaged her enamel. Doctors didn't know that at the time and neither did my mother. Now, despite excellent oral hygiene, she is facing this. I know to many people it may not be a big deal, but to my mom, dental issues and/or losing teeth are some of her biggest fears. Should they have to extract them, she wouldn't even be able to afford implants or a bridge--she would simply be without them and that would be very detrimental to her health and ability to eat.

We are humbly asking for anything you might be able to spare for my amazing mom. She is truly a light in this world and I hate seeing her facing this and all that will happen if she cannot get them repaired before it's too late. Any help or shares would be so greatly appreciated. No donation is too small! Thank you so much for any help you can do.
