Cost Of Tooth Extraction Could Pull Me From My Home

My Story:

I'm a single, disabled, 60 year old female who shares a home with my sister. My sister works as a teacher's assistant for the public schools in our hometown.

I recently needed extensive dental work which Medicare didn't cover. I had to pay for this out of pocket and it cost me almost two full months of my income. I need help to get my rent caught up to date. My landlord is very understanding about my situation and is working with me as I try to get the rent caught up. But I know that it will take a very long time on my own to pay this back.

This funding would get me back on track as far as my rent is concerned. My health is very important to me and because of my medical conditions, getting those teeth pulled means I can feel better knowing I don't have to worry so much about my digestive issues so much anymore. It feels amazing to be able to eat properly again. I hope you can help me stay in my home.
