Hello! My name is Denise and I am 53 years old. I am a Mental Health Counselor and I love helping other people. I have been a counselor for 20+ years. Well today I need some help! Due to circumstances beyond my control, I have lost all of my teeth. I was forced to get dentures and they are awful. There is the adhesive that you use to to hold the teeth in and it gets stuck on your gums when you take the dentures out to clean them. Or the fact that they move all the time and I can only eat soft foods. Please don’t misunderstand, I don’t want to sound ungrateful because I know it could be worse. But I have never done anything for myself. I was a single mom with two kids so money has always been tight. Now my kids are adults and it’s my turn to create my own life. One thing that I have been hoping for is being able to get dental implants. They are the closest to real teeth and they are permanent. However, they are so very expensive and insurance won’t cover it. I have been told by the dentist that I have less than a year to get the implants because I have lost so much bone density in the back. The only place I still have bone is in the front. But time is limited before implants are out of my reach forever. So like the website, I am begging for money so I can start the procedure in January 2024. The cost is $31,000! So if there is someone out there that would be able to help me I would be forever grateful and I would spend the rest of my life paying it forward so others can reach their own goals and dreams! This would mean the world to me to be able to smile again with confidence! Thank you for reading my story and for your consideration!
