I hate feeling sorry for myself or having to rely on others, but I am resorting to both because I am desperate. I lost my job 7 years ago after injuring my back, and still suffer pain 24/7. Nobody will help me retrain or give me a job, and I have had to scrape by on benefit hand-outs for 7 years.
Now the silliest thing it may seem, but I have been unable to afford proper dental care - only given very basic treatment on the state - and as a result have lost two teeth already. Now I am faced with losing a third because i was not given proper advice by a dentist who seems to want only to extract teeth.
The difference this time is it's a front tooth that will leave a gaping hole in my already diminished smile, and I know it's going to seriously affect my confidence, which is already at an all-time low. I think I will become so afraid to talk to people that I will just fade away. Some might call it vanity but to me it's a big deal right now.
The only option open to me is an implant or bridge, both of which are priced in the high hundreds or even thousands. I can't get a loan as i am already in debt, and any day now the balliffs are likely to call and remove what's left of my possessions. I'm not asking for charity, but will not refuse it. I am asking for a loan that does not have to be paid back in a hurry - a few dolalrs a month perhaps?
Please don't think me silly, this is a big worry for me on top of everything else. I want to have some chance of regaining my life, and to have a normal mouth would help more than you could imagine. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Please stop doing this if you are not for really, it is cruel and there are people who do genuinely need money and look on the web to see if there is anyone giving away money.

Dear barry I am desperate because I was diagnoised with hyperthyrodism at first told to drink the radio active iodine then paid to have surgery done to remove one side of the thyroid because I was desperately sick and had serious heart palpitations. Since then I have gained nearly a hundred pounds my self esteem has gone to nothing. My knees are the biggest you have ever seen. I need help to do a lipo procedure on my knees and legs so I could go out to walk every day to try the heavy journey of getting in shape and bringing some sort of happiness to my life. I have been hiding myself away and its causing me to be depressed daily. I'm asking for nothing more than 5000.00 do do the surgery or help me to get to a plastic surgeon who can help me. If you require pictures I would gadly send it. I'm from the small island of Tobago and no one is willing to help, all everyone is saying is that lois is swelling and getting too big, I can hardly walk and so unhappy I dont know what I will do next. Please help me.
