Hello my name is T.M. most of you seeing this will know my full name. I am self conscious about this so I'm remaining private mostly. I need a tumor on the inner lip removed surgically but it seems my lame insurance won't pay for biopsy.

Orals Surgeon doesn't want to remove without biopsy to make sure it's benign and not an indicator of something more worrisome. Makes sense... but also makes a predicament for a low income patient. Pls help. anything will help reach our goal. Okay now the sob story part...Of course it makes life uncomfortable: Interrupting my eating, speaking and even thinking habits as my brain automatically tries to compensate for a new weird speech impediment...but I need to share a more damaging aspect of this relatively recent deformity: So, if the sight of this thing makes you cringe, I promise you're not alone..Early on before I learned how to try and hide it, I was seeing people...friendly professional people...at their jobs literally glitch and have nervous ticks while talking to me. It took me a short while to realize this thing is why...so imagine having it peek out of your own mouth every time you try to smile or say a few words...yeh the cringe is real and so I need it removed for vanity...actually social and mental health reasons as well...If y'all know me you know I'm not usually heavy on the aesthetic vanity side of personality types, so obviously this is having a serious influence on me to make me even bring it up. And I strongly don't want to talk about it irl ever again especially after it's finally gone. Thanks for reading this far and considering a donation. The goal amount reflects the reality that in addition to the soft tissue removal and biopsy. I am also referred for 3 teeth removal and two repairs.
