Hi all. I'm looking for help with medical bills; specifically dental. A bit of background: Last year I had cancer (a year out and no evidence of disease!) and dealt with medical bills by dumping them onto credit cards, which are now nearly maxed out. I also have subsequent medical bills due to follow-ups and residual effects from chemotherapy, including impacts on my dental health. I have a full time job and make $47,000 a year, but I live on half of that and the other half goes to paying down debt. I am facing (among other procedures) a root canal, tooth extraction, and bridge, and simply can't afford them, while at the same time can't afford to put them off.

There are certainly plenty of people who are far worse off than I am, and no one should feel obligated to help me. However, if you do want to and are able to help, I would be very grateful.

Thank you,

Karen
