My sister and I are raising funds to help our mom receive a dental procedure that is both medically necessary and truly life-changing.

Our mom is a strong, loving woman who has spent much of her life pushing through significant health challenges. Due to a combination of Chiari malformation, severe TMJ, and post-menopausal hormonal changes, she has experienced severe tooth and bone degeneration. This has led to constant pain and discomfort that affects her ability to eat, speak comfortably, and enjoy everyday life.

After consulting with multiple specialists, she has been told that she urgently needs both upper and lower dental implants. Dentures are not a viable option for her condition, and unfortunately, their insurance does not cover this procedure. The cost places the surgery completely out of reach for her financially with a treatment plan totaling $45,000.

Beyond the physical pain, this situation has caused her deep embarrassment, anxiety, and emotional distress. Asking for help is incredibly difficult for her, which is why we are doing this on her behalf. Our hope is to relieve not only her physical suffering, but also the emotional weight she has been carrying for far too long.

Any contribution—no matter the size—would mean more than we can express and would go directly toward making this surgery possible. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser is just as helpful. And for those who pray, your prayers are deeply appreciated.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for any support you’re able to offer. Your kindness helps give our mom the chance at comfort, confidence, and a much better quality of life.
