: Teeth update... seeing new ortho in August.
We're currently at $7560.74 USD. I'd like to thank everyone who has been donating. It's super awesome of you.
I have finally settled on a shirt idea I like. It features Tuna dancing, and I hope to be able to show it to you online shortly.
At the insistent proddings of my mother, I've arranged to see an orthodontist on August 24th. It's the earliest they could take me. This would only be the initial, consulting visit before I get braces. After a year of braces, I get surgery. Six hours of orthognathic surgery totaling about $10k, if I'm lucky.
I've been putting off this visit because we haven't raised $10,000 yet. Now I don't have a job anymore (stupid economy), so I don't know how I'll pay for the monthly braces and the frequent cleanings they entail. But Mom's right. I can't put it off any longer. The pain is getting more frequent.
