Hope For The Holidays - Destiny 12.13.24. LISTEN HERE!
Dear Johnny, My dad, Tom, is a retired carpenter, but has since went back to work as a maintenance man to make ends meet. Due to the nature of his work as a carpenter, he has numerous health issues. He has had Hip replacement, Knee replacement, Herniated disk surgery, both rotator cuffs repaired, and more. My dad has been a hard worker his whole life. I used to watch my dad from my bedroom window leave for work early in the mornings. He would come home as soon as he could, dirty and tired but never too tired for us kids. Even with the struggles he would still smile and laugh. He loves telling stories and stupid jokes. But over the last few years, I’ve seen him smile less and less because of problems with his teeth. He has had upper dentures for the last 15 years, but recently has had serious infection in four of his bottom teeth (two of them had to be pulled). His dentist has warned him that he needs denture replacement. He has health and dental, but it doesn’t cover dentures. He lives alone now and it’s hard for him to come up with that extra money. I try and help as much as I can, but I am a single mother that works full time trying to get by myself. I would do anything for my dad. He needs upper and lower dentures, but he just doesn’t have the money. I know he is worried about infection and it’s painful for him to even eat and I think he gets embarrassed in public because of his teeth. He’s always been my best friend and I’m just scared that if we don’t fix this he’ll have problems down the road. I really would just be able to help my dad smile again. Thank you for all you guys do, it is greatly appreciated by everyone. Destiny Who Helped: Christopher & Pipefitters 533.
