Help Me Smile Again: Urgent Dental Surgery Needed
Story:
Hi, my name is Steven Schuchardt, I am a husband and a father to my amazing wife and 2 wonderful daughters, I’m reaching out to family and friends with a heavy heart and a hopeful spirit. After many years of dental issues I am now facing serious dental health issues that have begun to affect my overall health and quality of life. After many consultations with multiple dentists as well as multiple emergency extractions, it has become clear that I need urgent dental surgery — not just for cosmetic reasons, but for essential health reasons including pain relief, proper nutrition, and infection prevention.
Over the last 15 yrs, I’ve been battling Severe Chronic tooth pain, infections, tooth loss, difficulty eating and have lost the joy of smiling, and I honestly can’t remember the last time I actually smiled, and it’s taken a toll on my daily life and well-being. Unfortunately, the cost of dental care is incredibly high, and despite trying to save, seek assistance, and explore every option I could possibly think of, I’ve fallen short of the amount needed due to having a single income household. At this point I’m not sure where to turn to anymore.
The estimated cost of the surgery, along with necessary follow-up treatments and medications, and travel expenses to go to the facility that is affordable is approximately $20,000. I’ve set up this fundraiser in the hopes that friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers might be willing to help me reach this goal and restore not only my smile, but my health and confidence and allow me to smile with my friends and family once again.
Every donation — no matter how small — makes a difference. If you’re not in a position to give, sharing this page would mean the world to me and my family.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story and consider supporting me during this difficult time.
With gratitude,
Steven Schuchardt.
