Default Hi Bobby

Hi Bobby, I had put off my teeth due to finances. The last doc wanted me to spend 3 grand to save a tooth, that I found out with a second opinion was not salvagable. so that doc was out for $ only. SoI prayed, no joke, and called the referal line and asked for a compassonate doctor, to this stranger on the other end. He gave me her name. It had been 8 years since I had seen a doc, and already had three teeth pulled due to looseness and peradontal disease. This stuff she is doing for me totals over 3 grand, I looked over all the things that need to be done to save the rest of them. Deep root cleaning begins this wed. I do not know why shegranted me mercy like this with my bill. Tears just streamed down my face when she told me she wouldn't charge, I had handed her a copy of my health records. She did know I have been through H___. with my medical conditions.
My son does not want me to except that much chairity, he wants to work on the weekend to help pay for some of it. I will give her a couple of hundred on Wed. with my gold crown tooth that was pulled. That gold is worth something, and she can use it for somebody else. No sense keeping gold that can help another to have a crown. I will do all I can to pay her back, because this kindness was just because she is a good soul. I have a need I guess, and she responded knowing that medicare/medicaid do not pay enough for people to have dental care at all. This kind of doctor is RARE. She only asked that I tell my friends about her practice, which I am doing. I am also telling the whole internet! Try and find a good doctor and try to keep your teeth too bobby, it is worth a try and you just might find another good soul who will grant you mercy too. ginnie
