Hello, my name is Haley. This benefit will give me the self esteem, confidence, appearance, emotional happiness, and first time ever to be myself. I lost most of my teeth before adulthood. I cant eat most foods, I have to eat soft stuff. Most of the food I eat has to be with a spoon, because i cant bite into anything. I lost both parents before age 16. All my life I have dreamed of having a beautiful smile, and being able to eat chips, peanuts, pizza, apple, celery. I have never been financially stable enough to pay for getting teeth. I'm  56 years old, having that smile would be the best gift of my lifetime. I could go to my grandsons graduation, I could take pics with my family and friends, I could eat any food I wanted. Most importantly I could smile without being fake, ashamed, or embarrassed. I am already grateful for just having this chance to ask for your help. I pray that your kindness finds my lifelong desire to be happy because I have teeth. May each of your days be blessed.
