Daughter fundraising for mums emergency dental work

Papamoa Beach, Papamoa

This took my mum alot of courage to post up. She has had major anxiety with the dentist for most of her life. It became a phobia that she could not battle with. Her pain, chronic migraranes and overall wellbeing has been heavily related to her dental issues and she has finally plucked up the courage to go through with getting the work done. I'm proud of ger for overcoming such an overwhelming sense of fear to go through with it. Unfortunately after getting the quote, she won't be able to do it all on her own.

A bit about her: her name is Debbie she's a mum of 4 who has had problems with her teeth since childhood.shes always hated her smile and has suffered with strong anxiety at the dentist. being a mum, she didn't have spare time to have the work done. Shes now ready to start the long process of fixing the issues with her mouth.

She has a healthy diet, she's never taken recreational drugs or smoked. Alot of her issues are genetic and unfortunately untamed due to her ongoing financial situation and dealing with chronic fobia.

it gotten to the point where shes bedridden alot with pain and migranes and Is struggling to eat. Any help would be appreciated 🙏
