38 years old, I need help from the damage caused by Chemo

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Randy, and I’ve lived a very challenging life.

I’ll try to keep this part short.
I was born with cystic fibrosis.
spent a lot of my life in and out of hospitals
when I was 23, I had a double lung transplant. Allowing me a chance to live at life.
however, when I was 30, I was diagnosed with an extending aggressive type of stage 4 lymphoma. I was told I had less than a 5% chance at living 6 months.

that was 7 years ago.

sadly, I’m now having another medical issue, and I was told this from when I started chemotherapy all those years ago. It was that the chemotherapy was so strong that over time, my teeth would decay and break.

that already happened with my bottom teeth and thanks to some of the kindest people in the planet, I was able to get those bottom teeth removed, pegs installed, and gets magnetic dentures.

after trying my best, taking the best care of my teeth, they’ve been breaking and snapping. It’s been extremely painful and it jumps between what’s worse. A piece of simple food, or the constant stabbing in my nerves. Needless to say, I can’t live like this, and I need help.

if I remember right, and I could have some numbers off. I’m trying my best. the cost of removing my teeth was roughly 8,000 dollars.

from there, pegs need to be drilled into my skull and I believe those were between 3,500-4000 dollars each. If they did the same amount as before. I’ll need 4 pegs.

and then there is the cost to make these dentures. I can’t remember the cost exactly but it was between 3,500-5,000 dollars.

and there currently isn’t any programs that life been able to find that will help with these costs.

I hate resorting to this but I need help, please. I can’t eat without pain, I’m unable to sleep because it keeps feeling like I’m slicing my tongue off.

please, I am trying my best. Anything that can be donated would help.

thank you for your time, and I will gladly ask any questions that I’m able to. I really hope the works.
