Two loving grandparents have taken on full responsibility for their 12-year-old granddaughter after the sudden passing of her previous caregiver—her other grandmother. This loss has been deeply traumatic for the child, especially after experiencing five different placements before finally finding stability and love in her grandparents’ care.
The family is now facing a financial hurdle. The child began orthodontic treatment under her late grandmother, who paid $1,800 toward the total $6,800 cost. Unfortunately, the orthodontist does not accept Medicaid, and transferring care mid-treatment would be difficult, both logistically and emotionally, for the child.
These grandparents are doing everything they can to support their granddaughter through this transition. They are seeking help to cover the remaining $5,000 balance for her braces. Any support—whether partial or full—would mean so much and help this child continue her care without disruption during an already challenging time.
Thank you for considering a gift to support this family’s journey.
