This isnt going to be a cute post like my other ones. I really didnt want to want to have to talk about this on social media because if the stigma behind it But its been a struggle for me for almost 10 years and it finally came to pretty serious point this morning and I realized I need to reach out to my community for help. I’ve been silently dealing with the worst tooth issues for almost 7 years. Everytime I would go to the dentist, they would give me some outrageous number that I could barely afford so I would get one thing fixed and then a few months or a few years later, new worse issues would arise and it’s been an ongoing terrible cycle for the last 7 years. I thought I got the worst of it fixed a couple years ago but unfortunately 2 days before my birthday, I woke up with a terrible infection in my jaw from failing metal fillings/crowns that my insurance will barely cover. I was on antibiotics but after the first few days they seem to have not worked the way they did in the beginning and now my jaw is twice the size it was before. They told me this infection could spread to my throat/lungs and possibly be fatal. So my main focus right now is trying do anything I can to cover the cost of the dental surgeries I need. If anyone wants to donate, you can hit the links in either one of my bios to send a donation to my gofundme or my account on venmo (@EarthFragments) but if donations aren’t your thing, I still have quite a few new designs im selling on my jewelry website Or if you’d rather book a shoot. I’m a professional photographer as well and have really been getting back into portraits, weddings, product, food, brand shoots , headshots and anything else you may need. I would absolutely love to help get shoots/photography trades for dental surgery work for people anyway I can. Scroll to see my past photogrpahy work. I know everyone is struggling right now so if you can’t donate, Sharing this post far and wide would mean the world to me. #dentalsurgery #gofundme #dentalhelp #pleasehelp
