     Hello,   I thank you for reading about my situation. Thank you.

My name is Evan, I am a 21 year old male. I live in south new jersey working full-time for minimum wage, and minimum benefits. I have absolutely no dental coverage of any kind.

My bottom two wisdom teeth began to erupt when I was 18 (figures it couldn't have happened when I was a minor under my parents dental plan.) Since then, They have impacted, and become infected. As such, since I am now 21, almost 22, I'm going on 4 years with a now, raging infection in my lower jaw. The gums surrounding my bottom maulers, have become red, with chronic swelling, bleeding, and pussing.

It doesn't stop there. The infection has also spread to my tonsils, and I now have an acute tonsilitus, and formation of tonsiloliths, leaving a fowl taste in my mouth, and worse breath. I brush and floss my teeth, 4-5 times a day, just to prevent embaressing bad breath alone, let alone any more spread of infection.

The pain has actually gotten so severe, that I have to take excedrine migraine 3 times a day. The pain spreads from my now swolen lymphnodes in my neck, up my throat, throughout my lower jaw, and into my inner-ears.

I have tried my hardest to find a cheap way to have my wisdom teeth extracted, and get on some kind of antibiotics, but it's just not happening!

I need help, as much help as I can get.

Have a good day and good luck!

Hi there. I am a 23 year old Seminary Student/ youth leader. As Im sure you imagine Ministry is not the most lucrative profession, though the rewards defiitely make me rich! I am basically broke and have no insurance. (I work 2 part time jobs)  I am in terrible pain right now and it only seems to be getting worse. I am having major dental issues. I have a tooth that is in intense pain and the dentists stated it most likely needs a root canal but I simply don't have any money to pay for even another trip to the dentist much less a root canal. There is pain throughout that side of my jaw and teth but seems localized on that tooth. I don't know what to do but I trust God will provide. In a way its kind of excited when I have nothing I can do because it teaches me to trust Him so much more. Any help would be SO greatly appreciated as would your prayers. And also my sister is having similar issues right now. She needs her wisdom teeth out as well as other dental work from an accident she had, but being just married and with a young baby has no way to pay. I wish that I could help her and feel almost selfish for even asking for help myself without mentioning her first. Once again thak you so much!

Hey  !! My name is Crystal Coleman I am 20 yrs old and I have two twin boys that are Five months old and their names are Trevor & Leland . They are my Life. . To start off. Evey since I was little I was always in a family that did drugs and stayed in trouble I never knew my mom very well because she was in and out of jail, and I finally met my real dad when I turned 18YRS.I grew up with two brothers one is in jail now and has been in jail since he was 16. My little brother in in high school now and it is his senior year. When i was little i was sexual molested by my Uncle.. I felt that i could not tell anyone but when i did i told my Grandparents because they were the one we called mom and dad . When i told them they didnt belive me so the sent me off to live with my aunt here in Texas.. When i moved here i was treated like crap i had to go to school, cook dinner , wash dishes , wash clothes, clean my aunts room and rub her feet in the middle of a a school night . Her thought on school was that it came after what she wanted me to do for her! I belived in school first .. Anyways I finally ran away from her house at the age of 17 , from their i lived from house to house, and went to school. Thats when i met my husband , I fell in love i thought he was the real thing so we got married Oct 28, 2006 , but little did i know that when I said i do i would be put threw Physicaly and Emotional abuse. ( I got married at 18) I just put up with the abuse because i had no family to run to ... When i got married i was still in High School my husband didnt want me to go to school because he thought i would flirt with the boys , and he didnt want me to go on any school trips for all the same reasons.. Well thats when it all strarted the first time he just punched me in the face once and called me many names but I belived that he loved me so I didnt want to leave him.. But i did and when I had no were to turn to or no one to turn to I went back to him ... and the abuse got worse i had just had my gawbladder taken out when he decided to beat me the second time i was on the couch he decided that he wanted me to go to bed with him and i told him i was not ready for bed that i would be in the room in a min , well he didnt like that he followed me to the bath room and beat me in the shower , when he was beating me I went into an asthma attack and and refused to give me my medication. I left him that time for the second time. But as you might know already i went back because i felt in love and i felt that I couldn't live with out him. The third time he beat me he stopped in the middle of the high way and was yelling at me i told him to get out and let me drive because he was driving crazy because a EMS worker waved at me , when he got out of his little blue GMC truck i slidded over to the drivers side and as i was reaching for the door my husband grabed the door and slamed my head and arm in it many times and left me on the side of the road . This time i was determined i was not going back to him my aunt let me move in and while i was at school she also let him move in felt traped so i was with him again.. The Last time he beat me i was pregnate My friend was going to throw a graduation party for me because i had grauated well i was maken glasses for my party that said Senior Class Of 2007 and in the middle of maken a glass my husband asked me a question I didnt understand him so i asked him what he said and he started beating me, little did i know i was pregnant he held me in a conner and beat me and when i tryied to call the cops he took the phone and beat me more and the tore the house phone out of the wall and called his step mom and told her not to let me use the phone... I got out and when i did i went to the hospital and i found out i was pregnant 2 weeks later i was so excited but when i went to the hospital i found out that i was suspost to have triplets but when my husband beat me i lost a child. I was so upset with him, i couldnt figure out why he would beat me so much and just think everything was ok. I stayed away from my husband for 4 months and then i decided i was going to give him one more chance and this time it was not for me it was for the kids.. Well i didnt go threw physical abuse this time it was all emotional abuse this last time and i ended up having my babys earily because of all of stress and stuff he made me do , When i had the kids i thought it would change my kids lived in the hospital for 35 days after they were born i never got to touch my babys when they were born just a little while after they were in the hospital. They had so many cords on them because i had them 2 months earily. I went everyday to see my babys and my husband started getting jelious so i told him he better fix his act because if he didnt that the kids and i was leavin because we didnt have to put up with his crap. When the babys got out it was getting worse he didnt want me to have anything to do with my kids, and remember me telling you that my kids are my world well my kids gave me the strength to leave him for good , I went to a Family Abuse Center for a week now im living with a friend and i am getting a divorce. Every now and then I think mabey I should just go back because it might be easyier to just live with him because I have no car , no money and no house, but you know what  I refuse to go back to him when im breaking down and thinking about going back I listen to music . I Call this a Lesson Learned, and hold my two wonderful boys . Because it was a lesson Learned . I learned the hard way , but alway turn to god even when no one eles is their he is!! God knows what i went threw and he will take care of it at the end!!

   I'm a hard working man and love my family with all my heart. It pains me to see them have to struggle through and have to go without.  For me to be doing this, means that things have gotten very bad. 

I'm not looking for a handout.  I just want to promise to anyone who comes to my rescue that I will pay every cent back, my word.  

At any rate,  I am blessed with the love of my family and know that some how and some way  good things will come.

Thank you.

Randy

     Hi, this is my story. I had 3 strokes and 1 seizure when I was 17 yrs. old. My entire left side was paralyzed. My parents left my lying in my bed for almost three days before finally taking me to the hospital (my father said that I was on drugs and that when I came down off of my 'trip' I would be fine; too bad I didn't do drugs and would never think of doing them). The docs. confirmed that they were NOT drug or alcohol related and said that if I ever had done acid, coke, etc. I most likely would've died instantly. I have mitro-valve prolapse and an irregular heartbeat and my blood got too thick. Well, it was downhill from there. I found myself pregnant at 18 with no job or car, parents kicked me out and for my whole first pregnancy I lived on the street and slept in abandened cars. I never had pre-natal vitamins, never got to drink milk, never even was able to brush my teeth. I was extremely high risk because of my strokes, so NO doc. in my vicinity would even look at me. Needless to say, my first daughter was born almost 3 mo. early and would stop breathing. She lived her first mo. of life in a hospital. Parents let me come back home because in order for the hospital to release her, she had to wear this heart monitoring belt for a year. 2 1/2 yrs. later I married my husband and had another girl who was also high risk and tried to come early but they were able to stop the contractions with her.

     My husband is EXTREMELY verbally abusive to me. When I was 21 I had a tubal litigation and after that started having panic attacks. After 6 mo. of wondering what the heck was going on with me, I finally found out that I also have a biological anxiety disease which my children may have inherited from me. I was in a really bad car accident which messed up both of my knees and I ended up having to have a plate and screws put in my left wrist. Panic attacks got so bad they were to the point that I can't tell you how many times I was rushed to the hospital because they thought I was having a heart attack; that is how bad my symptoms are. 

     Now, I cannot work, or drive. I have no peripheral vision on my left side (which means absolutely no balance and I'm constantly running into things even in my own home), my left side is much weaker and shakier than my right, and my left wrist only moves so far. I am on so many meds. for severe anxiety and also severe depression that my hair is literally falling out, I cannot lose weight, I cannot concentrate on anything for long, cannot remember hardly anything, I have NO energy, am constantly tired and have to take a nap every day. I have major headaches every day of my life, my wrist and knees are always hurting, found out that I have a lovely cyst growing on my brain and now to top everything off, my teeth are literally rotting away in my mouth (probably due to my first pregnancy), there is basically nothing I can do to stop this from happening. My Medicare does not cover dentistry (of course) and hubby's insurance only pays $1,000.00 a yr. which has mostly been spent already trying to find a cheap dentist because they are all saying that I need to have all of my upper teeth pulled and because my palate is abnormally rounded and I have an overbite there will not be enough suction created to hold a plate up there, I need to have an oral surgeon remove my teeth and put 4 implants in so they can snap a denture up there. Now we are talking anywhere from $9,000.00-20,000.00 depending on what kind of service you want. I sure as heck do not have that kind of money and never will. Our credit is shot because of loans we already have and credit cards being maxed out, but yet I do not qualify for any 'programs' because my husband makes, what, 10 cents too much?!? So, I am just sitting here in horrible pain because of my teeth, becoming more and more stressed out and depressed because I cannot do anything about this and it is so unfair. I'm so tired of pain, it makes all of the other things that are wrong with me even worse. It hurts when I eat (although it doesn't stop me), it hurts for no reason at all, it even hurts sometimes to talk. I won't go out in public anymore unless I absolutely have to, I hardly ever talk to anyone face-to-face and I NEVER smile anymore. I just sit here all day long when I'm not sleeping, crying and hurting and knowing this will be the rest of my miserable life.

     I feel that if I could get my teeth fixed, that it would be like opening a whole new world for me. I would WANT to talk to people and to laugh and smile. I wouldn't be as embarassed to go out of my house. A lot of my stress, depression, and anxiety would go away because of my teeth being fixed and paid for. Perhaps because of that I would be able to get off of or lessen my medications and then maybe I could lose some weight and maybe my hair would even stop falling out. Just think if all that were to happen, then almost all of my stress, anxiety, and depression would go away. Perhaps I could get off of the medicine, be able to drive again, not sleep so much, have more energy, be able to get a real job, not be considered disabled anymore, have a real life, be happy, and be able to help others as well. Now THAT would be a dream come true.

     If anyone that reads this is considering helping me; please write to me and I will email you ANY additional information you would like. Pictures, dentist name, etc. Please, this is NOT in any way a scam, I would not risk my checks from disability that I so desperately need to try and scam or hurt anyone.

We are a low income family looking for assistane to help us make it! Ok let me get a little bit more into detail on how we need help. My husband is a Iraqi veteran he is 27 yrs old and is now disabled he was injured in iraq, and when he came home was discharged from the military. I am unable to work out of the home due to this and our 3 children. We live in government housing and would really like to have our own home. please any info possible would be great!

 Hello my name is Randy.  I have a wife and two young daughters that depend on me. I have fallen to some unfortunate events of recent. I have let my family down because I became ill and was unable to work.  Our car broke down needing a new engine ($2250 )and that is with me doing most of the work,  otherwise it would have been $5000.  Our heat got turned off during the freeze and the bills are starting to pile up.

I have a beautiful one year old daughter who I can't let down.  She's amazing...her smile is what keeps me going .

I have just started a new job.  I'm not looking for a hand out,  just  a little help to get back on my feet and I will pay every last cent back MY WORD. 

Please help us.

Thank you, 

Randy

My mother is only 53 years young and has lost her right limb at age 50 due to diabetes. She will be celebrating a 54th birthday on July 16 of this year and I want to do something for her that she so desparately needs.  SMy moms is in good spirits and has the kind of drive and ambition that even I, at 36 dont have.  However; my mother is suffering with her teeth and has been now for the past six months. After having an exam last week, I was informed that my mom would have to undergo a dental procedure that would cost nearly 6500.00.  I am not sure if this is a realistic estimate, but Ido plan to do research to find out what other options are available.  The unfortunate thing is, that my mom is in nursing home and has been feeling really depressed for the past few weeks, and after telling her that I did not have the funds to pay for the procedure (I am umemployed...praying and searching faithfully for a full job) she became very angry due to the pain she has been enduring.  My mother thinks that  Idont care about her or her health which is not true at all, I am just in a very broke state right now and dont have the funds to cover those expenses.  She does receive Medicare, however;  they wont cover the expenses......therefore, I am desperate to find a dentist  or anyone who knows of anyone who can help my mom in her time of need.  She is a dear sweet lady and I just want to let her know that I love her and that I want to make her feel like her good old self again...........well as least as much as possible.  I found this site today and I was searching for information, so if anyone has any information to help my mother who or others with disabilities and limited help and income, I would be most grateful.

Peace & Blessings,

Chriss

 Hello! I am Mimi and I am disabled....I am happily married-13 years- I have 4 children...my daughter and 3 step children-I have a new Grandson who is a Blessing, he is a preemie, 5 weeks early and only 5lbs...but perfectly healthy!!! No problems that some preemies have!!-I am an animal lover and have 4 four legged kids who were all rescues!!-I have Advanced degeneritive disc disease in my whole spine, 4 herniated disc, narrowing of the canal in the spine where the nerves run thru-which has the nerve from the left sciatica down to my toes pinched and causes my leg to go numb, which causes me to fall ALOT!! I live with PAIN every day and am unable to do a lot of things that most people take for granted!!!My husband works every day to try to help with the bills but his check goes to child support and gas to go to work....I am lucky to get $50 a week to buy food....We are both STRESSED to the max!!! BUT......we are happy and blessed!!!!!!!

I was told by my neurosurgeon that I should not be walking,but in a wheel chair!!! He can't explain why I'm not. I CAN!!! By the Grace of My God!!!! Every day is a blessing!!

I am a stay-at-home mom with 2 children still at home. Please allow me to tell you about myself. When I was very young, my parents divorced. I grew up with 2 families of dysfunctional and abusive parents and step-parents. I became pregnant with my first child at the age of 18, right out of high school. I was blessed with a beautiful daughter. Unfortunately, I was forced to raise her alone. It seemed I was cursed, as every man I began a relationship with turned out to be physically and/or mentally abusive. I can't count the number of times I was hit in the face or slammed against the wall. With my parent's history, I believed this was normal behavior. Then about 11 years ago, God blessed me by introducing me to my husband. He is a good, decent, loving man who taught me the true nature of love and life. It took me a long time to change my thinking and accept normal love. God has blessed us with 2 children together, a boy and a girl. Unfortunately, my abusive past has left me with scars and agony. I learned a few years ago that my lower back was injured severely and I am in constant pain. Multiple childbirths aggravated the injury. I am on several, hard, pain medications to help me make it through my normal days. Also, the repeated hits to my mouth injured my teeth and jaws to the point that my teeth are deteriorating rapidly. I am unable to eat many foods and I find my teeth break off frequently. All of this also causes me constant pain.

I am in need of extensive, dental surgery to save or replace my teeth and end that portion of my pain. I am also in need of back surgery to hopefully restore at least partial stability to my back and end that portion of my pain.

Unfortunately, my husbands insurance does not cover but a small portion of my needs and none of the dentists or doctors will begin the necessary procedures without a full, advance payment.

 My husband has worked 2 jobs since we were married in an attempt to pay our bills and take care of me. He lost his best-paying job last year and we are now seriously past due on most of our bills, including our mortgage.

I am hoping that with the help of God and some caring, compassionate people, I might be able to have the  dental and medical treatments I need to smile again. My husband has given me a reason to smile for the first time in my life. Please help me.

My dream is to become a licensed counselor to help other people free themselves from the horrors of drugs and abuse. Without the medical and dental treatments I need, this dream will never come true.

I am 23 years old and am having terrible pain because of my teeth.  They are so bad I haven't been able to work and I have no insurance.  Please email me at Marhel3@yahoo.com if you can help.

Hi, to anyone who can help.

I am a 43 year old female. I was diagnoised with Multiple Myeloma Cancer in 2006. This is a bone cancer. It is not curable, but treatable. I had to have a stem cell transplant done back in August of 07, I have been out of work since then. I need help paying some of my bills. I am not able to return to work yet. If there is anyone that can't help I would appreciate very much. It is just me and my Mother living together and she is on a fixed income. She is retired. She has helped as much as she can.

Thank you, to anyone reading this and may God Bless you and keep you in his loving arms.

"Our only hope ls our children and olderfolk," Good God in heaven knows, the "powers that be" sure won't change their ways and help the backbone of america. Things went bad when we started moving Grandpa & Grandma out of the home into oldfolks homes. The kids lost precious teachings that are vital to life. The olderfolk lost their reason to be. All in the name of Bigger, better,faster and longer! We have a vast number of children lost in fostercare, on the street,and in broken homes. And with the great number of functioning olderfolk lets take some of the failing family farms and put them together? This is my idea. The children have not only lost the joys and lessons that Mom and Dad have no time to teach. But what is more, They don't learn how to be Human. Look around, We are in deep we must begin with our children so that when they are "The powers that be" they wil treat their familys with a bit more Humanness. One farm is all we need to start.   A.

Physically Challenged Adults Support

Hi! I am a disabled lady who needs help building a small deck and wheelchair ramp on my mobilehome! I have severe back problems and financial problems(who doesn't huh?)I have given details in my profile....I am in too much pain to go down my stairs to go in the yard or to get in the car to go anywhere! My doctors say nothing can be done to fix my back/spine so I now go to pain management! I have a back brace that I wear to help me from turning or twisting wrong, which could be a really bad thing...it could put me to bed for days at a time!!! My husband works but most of his pay goes to child support and gas to go to work...he is not even getting his 40 hours in right now because they do not have any work!! (It's bad when the ex gets more than we do!!)My ex doesn't even give me child support!!!!!!!

I feel so bad to have to ask for help, but it has come to the point where We have no choice. We can't even get a loan against our land, which is paid off!!My disablity check will not even cover monthly bills much less buid a ramp!

If anyone could help us we would be glad to help w/ the building (well I could supervise!lol)OR if someone could help us with a loan against our land, we could pay that back!

May God Bless and Keep You All!!

Thanks for looking at my request!!

A little background information. I am 40, almost 41 years old, married with two beautiful daughters ages 8 and 5 and disabled since April 2001. I receive Social Security Disability but we all know that it does not come close to a regular pay check. Before I got sick, my wife and I were both working and our combined income was close to $85K per year. I began getting sick in 1999 with acid reflux or GERD. I went through every drug on the market and using each above the recommended maximum dosage with little or no relief. When it began eating away at the lining of my esophagus to the point I was developing holes in the lower portion near the point where it connects to the stomach and spilling into my lungs so badly that they thought I had developed asthma, their only other option for me was a surgical procedure called fundoplication. This procedure takes the upper portion of the stomach and and wrap it around the esophagus to tighten the valve to prevent the acid from coming back up and to cover the holes. It was supposed to be a laproscopic procedure where I had it done on one day, spend the night in the hospital and go home the next morning. My maximum time off work was to be two weeks. I actually left the hospital on the day I was supposed to return to work. When I kind of came to on the first day after having the laproscopic procedure go so badly that I had to be opened up the full length of my abdomin so that they could try to fix what they did that almost killed me plus I was in intensive care. The next day, they did a test where I drank some awful tasting mess so they could check for any leaks in my stomach or anything. Guess what, they stated that they found leaks and back into the operating room I went where they took everything they did the day before apart and did it all again. This time when I woke up, again in intensive care, I was on a ventolator for a week. They took the thin lining that is between your organs and your skin to keep then from growing to each other to wrap my stomach and seal off the 3 or 4 places that it tore open during the laproscopic surgery. During the first, laproscopic, surgery, in addition to my stomach tearing open in 3 places, my liver was cut/damaged to the point that the gave me at least 4 units of blood. I haven't been able to work since then. I have constant diarrhea, abdominal pain which is increased when I eat anything at all, on a scale of 1 to 10, I stay around 8 or 9 all the time. I also have a partial small bowel obstruction that will eventually have to be surgically fixed. The obstruction(s) are caused from the extreme amount of scar tissue that I have in my abdomin which is why they don't want to operate again until they absolutely have to. I have been admitted to the hospital 12 times in just the past 3 years and have already had to have surgery to correct a blockage in my colon. My small intestines, colon and I don't know what else is attached to my skin where the lining was removed. I cannot lift anything more than 5 to 7 pounds, pull, strain, climb, crawl  nor stand, sit or lye down for more than about an hour and a half at a time because of the pain. I also have areas that are close to herniating which will also cause another surgical procedure. When they admit me for a blockage, I spend a week there with a tube down my nose (NG Tube), in my stomach connected to a suction pump to pull all of that stuff back out and clear the blockage, for then anyway. One, I cannot even stand to think about any other surgery and two, the doctors don't want to do it either.  In addition to all of that, and I left some things out, I have degenerative disk disease in my back, my spine has lost it's curve at the end where the tail bone is. Also, I have to sleep with a CPAP machine because of sleep apneia and have to take medicine during the day because I also have narcolepsy. Dealing with all of this has caused depression, anxiety and post traumatic stress disorder from the surgery. I still and always will deal with these health issues and mental stress from now on. Because of all of my problems, it's obvious that my wife had to leave her job to care for my and our children so we have been trying to make it on Social Security Disability which is getting harder and harder every day. We have already gone through our savings and 401(k)'s to survive and keep our home and a vehicle. Our credit is shot because we have had the 2 cars that we had when this all happened repossessed. Also, all of the other credit we had then, fell behind and pretty much totally destroyed our credit. We are behind one house payment and the mortgage company is a pain to deal with and absolutely refuse to offer any assistance at all. I am still trying to pay some on my hospital co-payments that are now pushing a total of close to $10K and I never know from day to day when I may have to go back. Plus, like everyone else, I have the normal power, phone, cable, water, trash pickup, car payment, car insurance, homeowners insurance, food and school things for our girls. We also heat and cook using propane gas. We have been without propane for 95% of the winter and we are out now which means we heat with small electric heaters and cook on a hot plate, microwave or small toaster oven. Right this moment, we have a total of maybe $5 to last two more weeks and it's about to drive us crazy. We can't cook, heat nor watch TV because the cable has been turned off until I can get money to pay them in two weeks. I am the type of person who hates to have to ask others for help. I would rather help others than to ask for help but I don't have much of a choice right now. Our families, our church and our friends have been great during all of this but they all have their own bills and families to take care of also. Any help would greatly be appreciated! May God bless you!

Oh Dear GOD...Please send me the means to provide for my family in a way that will satisfy us all... I am not looking to get rich... I am not looking for an employment opportunity... I am just looking for a way to support my family's needs while I pursue the direction that I feel GOD is pushing me towards... Writing a series of Faith-Building-Romance novels...

I feel this so strongly in my soul that HE is behind around and in front of this calling... and with my daughter's "special needs", I know that this type of work will allow me the freedom o be there for her everytime that she really needs me to be...

 RIGHT NOW I FEEL LIKE I AM TRYIG TO DIG MY WAY OUT OF THE GRAND CANYON WITH A TOOTHPICK...

"GOD please help me find a way o provide for my family that satisfies us all"
