Ryan Tiffin hasn't added a story.
My name is Ryan Tiffin. I am 27 years old and I was born with a handful of health complications.
During labor my biological mother abused substances that almost killed her and myself. She went blind for three weeks and here I am 27 years later with the left over complications.
My health complications include a stomach disorder that doesn't allow me to keep nutrients in long enough to supply my body with what it needs. The other major complication is dental health. Many people say to me all the time, "Ryan, why don't you smile?" The true and honest and answer is I have no confidence when it comes to my mouth. I have been in and out of dental chairs my entire life. It wasn't until 3 years ago that I started making progress.
Gary, my late partner and I took private loans out to start the reconstructive surgery of my mouth. We got about 70% done when he took his life. The other 30% is starting to deteriorate and cause other complications to the work I have had done. I am still paying the debt that was left.
I am raising money to get my mouth / teeth completed. If I can get it stabilized, it will stay healthy and just need maintenance. I work 40-60 hours a week for a school that pays once a month and the rest on marketing clients and volunteering with Animal Rescue. I need your help. I am ready to smile again with confidence and have a healthy mouth. If the health in my mouth starts improving It will also help my heart and stomach lining.
The money will directly go towards root canals, crowns, posts, extractions, and labs. I will be using two dental offices and possibly the dental school to complete this process. This will allow for cost efficiency.
I need your help. Please share and contribute anything you can. I am willing to give everyone that helps access to private remixes and sets that I have acquired over the years of being a DJ.
Thank you.
