User-submitted image -  Click to see real sizeGenerosity seems to be a rare quality in the texture of our current culture and economy. Well, yes. The big events that catch the media: hurricanes, bombings, etc. do capture attention for a brief period. I want to thank and acknowledge you for your humanity and generosity simply toward a brother... with a modest need. Your spirit... wind beneath my wings... will help keep me on my path in creating my current project: GLOBAL NETWORK for a THRIVING and SUSTAINABLE FUTURE.

Please Help Complete My Uncapped Root Canal - Ouch!

My Story:

Hello, I rent a single small room in which I have lived and worked out of for seven years. I am long divorced and have a grown son and two granddaughters living in Arizona. I am 79 and have peripheral neuropathy, which limits my ability to stand in one spot for any period of time.

I recently had a root canal done, eliminating an infection, which caused me a lot of pain. Insurance coved this expense only partially, and will not cover the cost for the crown. Because I live on a limited income, I have no way to afford this. Besides my social security I do design work for digital presentation, but at my age I am having a tough time obtaining new clients, as the job market here is overrun.

I am afraid that without your help my tooth will remain exposed to further infection. I make a conscious effort to not dwell on negative feelings. I have begun to take better care of my remaining teeth as I am stunned at the cost of dentistry.

Helping me with this expense will eliminate one financial barrier toward my immediate progress. I promise when I can to double or triple your gift as I hope to do well and pay this kindness forward. Thank you in advance for your help!
