Help Niteshade Smile Again: Jaw Surgery & Invisalign Fund
Donation protected
Hey everyone, Raven here! We're raising funds to help our lovely Niteshade (aka Ali) get the jaw surgery she desperately needs.
The Situation:
Niteshade has a medical condition, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), which necessitates jaw surgery. Her medical insurance covers the surgery itself, thankfully. However, there's a catch: she needs Invisalign braces before the surgery can happen.
The Urgency:
Niteshade's misalignment is extreme. While a typical overbite is around 3mm and "normal" is around 1mm, hers is measured at 10.8mm. This is causing her bottom teeth to push her top teeth up and out of her mouth, creating a serious and urgent dental issue.
Why Invisalign?
Due to her EDS, traditional braces would cause excessive irritation and damage to her mouth. Invisalign is the only safe and viable option for her.
The Challenge:
Despite the braces being a medical necessity for the covered surgery, neither her medical nor dental insurance will cover the cost of the orthodontia. This leaves her with a $6,000 expense.
Why She Needs Your Help:
Niteshade is a warm, creative, and community-focused streamer, artist, gamer, cosplayer, and model. While she works hard, her income from platforms like Twitch, Patreon, and YouTube is currently minimal. With existing car payments and medical bills, she simply doesn't have the reserves to cover this unexpected and urgent expense.
The Goal: $6,000
We're aiming to raise $6,000 to cover the full cost of her Invisalign treatment. Every contribution, big or small, will make a difference!
