Heat Pump! (Again.) Also teeth.

That part is now healing up fine.


Part 2:
Impending Surgery

So earlier this year I had a cleaning on my upper left quadrant. That got close to a crown in my upper right quadrant. ( More horror. )

This portion of the program is going to cost upwards of $1500 after counting in the retainer-thing. So it is crowdfunding time. (This is with two forms of insurance, but replacing a front upper tooth is apparently a luxury item in this fucking country.)

We are still somewhat financially overextended from October's portion of this nonsense, which hit the FSA and a card that's still getting paid down. We're fed and housed and such, and Mama is helping, but if anyone happens to have some spare change kicking around that is not for food and housing and medical, I would appreciate some help. My PayPal is azurelunatic at gmail. (I also have a venmo linked to a private address.)
