She is a 64-year-old disabled woman living alone in Morgan Hill, California. Sadly, due to her diabetes, all her teeth must be extracted. She suffers many dental infections.
At this time, she is seeking assistance with her September rent as she was forced to use those monies to cover two extractions and diagnostic work ups that were simply not optional.
Depression over the loss of her teeth, worry about future dental expenses, and stress about whether to pay the rent or pay for the dentist is wearing her down. Being diabetic adds to the stress level. Her blood sugar readings are out of control when her teeth are infected, so she had no choice but to get the work done.
She is already struggling with health issues that are causing a loss in quality of life, but without assistance, she could also lose her home.
