With medical bills and med's I have Parkinson's.

Hello my name is Tony Civella most of you know me some of you don't I am on here today pleading for help which is something I thought I would never do in my lifetime I am approaching 48 next month and I have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease at the age of 43 I fall in the 4% of the population that gets this disease under 50 to 60 years old. For those of you that don't know about Parkinson's disease there is no cure as of yet and the regular lifespan is about 10 to 20 years which I am 6½ years in I haven't worked since 2017 my disability is minimal My license was medically revoked and I haven't been able to drive since 2019 so I sit at home on a couch by myself all day and just watch TV. I have an amazing wife who takes care of me and our two kids who are 11 and 8 but she herself is a paraprofessional which is a teacher that takes care of and helps special needs kids and as you know a teacher's salary is next to nothing. I'm just trying to make some everlasting memories for my children and my wife before I am not myself and just not able to do it I wake up thinking the worst everyday and still hoping for the best. It is just such a hard thing to live with I walk with a cane I'm limited to so many things I can do it's hard to eat without shaking and drink I'm not looking for handouts I'm just looking for a little help I don't know what else I can say but thank you if you read this because that means a lot in itself as a person once said. You don't die from Parkinson's. You die with Parkinson's again thank you for reading this and God bless you all.

So for a recent update on my condition it has only gotten worse every day never gets better after taking all these meds for 7 years my teeth are all decaying and falling out just for top snapping Dentures alone is $20,000 which is just insane and that does not include the bottom at all I've added 10 more meds since the process has begun in 2019 I started having uncontrollable blackouts and seizures which in turn has taken my license away so I haven't driven since then which keeps me very isolated with nothing but my thoughts I come to you with hat in hand just looking for help to give my family a better life when I'm gone and give them a great life while I'm still here no amount is too small and everything is truly appreciated whether it's a donation or even prayers for me and my family I thank you for taking the time to read this and God bless all of you.

Now to make matters even worse I need to have three surgeries I need my left bicep repaired it is split from the Parkinson's I need discs in my L3 L4 and L5 replaced as well as my right shoulder replaced it is riddled with arthritis the hits just keep coming and I keep getting up for the love of my family and to show them I'm strong but it's getting very hard everyday it is harder and harder to put on a happy face so they don't know how bad things really are I am begging and pleading for your help too let me live out whatever time I have doing wonderful things with my kids so they will never forget how happy and fun I used to be before this damn disease takes me for good thank you and God bless you all ❤️❤️!!!

So I thought I would finally include something that is very hard to show but the fact is that it is my reality now. 8 years ago I had a normal mouth with all my teeth and no dental concerns what so ever. Now 7 year's later after contracting Parkinson's Disease and all the med's I've had to take over the past 7 years all my teeth have pretty much broken or fallen out needless to say this has made my depression even worse which I did not think was possible and for dentures alone just on top would be anywhere from 7k-20k and that's not even touching the bottom I'm appealing to your good nature and begging for any help possible please take a look at the pictures and see how you would feel thank you for reading and God bless you .
