Help me get dentures! MAJOR SURGERY

Hi, my name is Kate and whether or not you know me, I have little to no teeth as genetic family issue and I’ve been struggling with the lasting effects of this for the past decade. 

I’m a front end supervisor at Open Harvest Co-Op Grocery and I love my job there. It is a second home to me that I grew up with as a child and it’s very close to my heart. I feel very lucky to work here and be a part of this local community. 

As it is I’m struggling to get my health in better shape. I’m absolutely terrified of dentists, but the pain I’ve been in - with constant visits to the ER, finally became too much. I pushed myself to go to the dentist after TWELVE YEARS! Initially I had to get my tooth pulled but with the staff there, we made a plan for me to get full upper dentures! My teeth and gums are a big issue medically and it’s been affecting my health for way too long. However, these dentures are gonna cost me well over $5,000 - money I do not have and sadly, I was also denied for Care Credit. So ultimately I need to have half the money up front and the last of it on the day of surgery. If all goes according to plan, I’d like to get this done in September or October. Please help me get to my goal so I can eat again, smile and just feel better about myself.
