- This is the 1st time I’ve ever asked for help and it’s not easy. This is my only hope. I need help desperately. Let me tell you a little history about myself which has led to this… I have a career of 25 years as a funeral director & embalmer in TX. license #11774. A few years ago I was kidnapped and held captive for 7 agonizing months. I was beat to a bloody pulp every single day. This monster had full control over me. He stole my car and my money and my phone and basically everything I owned. He locked me away in a room for the last 2 weeks before I made my escape. I was unrecognizable when I got away. During this time he kicked me in my bottom jaw and ultimately shattered all of my teeth. They started falling out in chunks. This has left me with nubs for teeth. It is very embarrassing to say the least. I no longer have the self confidence to approach anyone I don’t know to introduce myself or look for new funeral home accounts for employment. I am self employed and I still work but strictly in the back doing embalming where I am hidden away from the public eye. The few accounts I have are not enough to pay my bills. I have always been independent and I don’t know what to do besides ask for help. I don’t have any family left …. they have all passed on. At this point I am not employable. Nobody wants a funeral director working for them that has no teeth. I don’t even think I could get a job working from home because it has affected my speech. Nobody understands what I’ve been through and people are very judgemental. All of this has led to me not being able to afford to pay my bills and at this point I am almost homeless. I don’t know where to turn for help. I would love to get either dentures or even better dental implants. That way I could get new accounts and continue working to support myself, but right now I just need to make ends meet and buy some groceries. I am struggling with suicidal thoughts daily so every day I am still here is a gift I suppose. Thank you for taking the time to read my story. This is my last ditch effort to help myself. if I can make it through this I will be eternally grateful and will pay it forward 10fold.
