My Teeth
Donation protected
Hello!! My name is Sarah Presnell.
I figured I’d make a GoFundMe for my teeth, as insurance, nor Medicaid, will pay for the damage that has been done.
On February 20, 2020, around 12/12:30 pm, I wrecked my car off Highway 89, also known as Skyline Highway by the locals of our town. It was snowing that day, but around the time I wrecked, it wasn’t too bad. I assumed the roads would be fine to drive home, but I was wrong.
I hit a patch of ice, and didn’t have time to take control of my vehicle, keep in mind, I was going under the speed limit, and had all eyes on the road ahead of me. My car went off an approximately 30 foot embankment, where I flipped, and landed almost vertical to the ground. My airbags didn’t deploy, and while I was rolling, my head slammed into my steering wheel, completely breaking one tooth out of my mouth, and breaking three others.
I had visited the dentists, and they want to put an implant in the spot where the one tooth has been broken completely out, root canals, and capping, on the other three.
I know I could live without my teeth, and I’m very thankful I’m alive, as I wasn’t supposed to survive something like that, but, my teeth gave me confidence. I smiled every day.
Now, I have zero confidence, I try and stay out of public as best I can, and when I talk to anybody, no matter how close they are to me, or my relatives, I cover my mouth. It’s embarrassing.
As you can see, I decided to use a picture of when I had my teeth for this GoFundMe, I miss my teeth, I miss smiling and not being stared at, not being talked about, because of my teeth. I miss being confident.
Every little bit would genuinely help me, and I would appreciate it so very much.
