Help Skylar Smile Brighter

Hello, my name is Natalie. I'm fundraising for my daughter, Skylar's cleft-lip and palate surgeries. Sky is an amazing young woman! She was born 22 years ago with a severe cleft-lip and palate. There has been many surgeries and braces over the years. She's never let the cleft or anything else keep her from anything she set her mind to doing, from cheer to band playing the drums. Socializing has always come easy to her, making friends wherever she goes. Today, she enjoys going to concerts, festivals and spending time with friends and family. Skylar deserves a smile to match her outgoing personality!

Sky's surgeries started when she was only six months old. It has been a very long road for her, but she is finally nearing the end. In July she will be having the most complicated surgery yet. The surgeon will be relocating her upper jaw and wiring her mouth shut for six weeks of healing. She will have braces put back on right after her jaw surgery. Once she heals, she will be having a rhinoplasty surgery and a lip repair. Then my sweet girl will be able to truly get to living her life, putting this all behind her.

Despite having insurance and help from family, we are in need of additional help paying for doctor visits, surgeries and braces. So, I'm reaching out to you asking for help. At the end of Sky's surgeries and care, we intend on donating whatever is left to another family with a child born with a cleft. If donating isn't feasible for you then please take a moment and share this. Thank you and many blessings to you and yours!
