Louis was seen by the surgeon, and the news was difficult.

The infection in his mouth is very severe. The doctor believes that a large abscess formed inside and eventually burst. Because of this, the tissue around his mouth was badly damaged and his lips have almost disappeared.

To stop the pain and infection, all of Louisโ€™s teeth will need to be removed.

The surgeon explained that there are two possible options:

The first option is to remove all his teeth. Louis will be able to eat normally and he will no longer be in pain. The only difference is that visually his mouth will remain open because part of his lips are missing.

The second option would be a flap surgery to reconstruct lips using skin. This surgery is much more complex and expensive.

After discussing everything, we decided to proceed with removing the teeth only. This will relieve his pain and allow him to live comfortably without putting him through a heavier surgery.

Right now, we are struggling financially and donations have been very limited. We simply cannot afford the additional procedure.

Louisโ€™s surgery to remove his teeth will cost $230.

If anyone can help Louis get the surgery he urgently needs, it would mean the world to us.
Thank you for standing with Louis.
