AMAZING NEWS, thank you to everyone who helped!

I can finally talk about it, my Dad DID win the contest. Not only did he win, but we were first. Votes weren't the deciding factor but those of you who took the time to support my Dad, you helped change his life. Hes going to get total dental surgery, a permanent set of new teeth and will be able to eat again.
I was a nervous wreck when they told us he'd won because they wanted to interview us. I was like OH NOOO you can't put me in front of a camera. My brother and sister both spoke about my Dad on the video and I tried to show how important he was to me in the video editing. So the fact they wanted me on camera was very nerve wracking for me. But when they called, they told us that it wasn't really an interview and that we won first place.
Here's the submission

Here's some of the video of them revealing we'd won.

It's truly amazing, a gift from God and these people who are going to save my Dad.
WAH-HOOOOOOOOOOOO! and a happy 4th of July too you all!

Now Fuzzle-Dad (Dad-Fuzzle?) can share more smiles with the world.
Maybe we should call him Da-zzle since his smile will be shiny new uwu
Again, to you and your Da both: Super 2Per Congrats, my friend Fuzzle, and friend Fuzzle-Da through his son! ^_^

My Da would've been the same way with my brothers and I; if it was something life-threatening and immediate, he would always have the sense to take care of it (and were it one of us, or our Mum or his Mum (my Gran'ma), that would be his approach as well) quickly and soundly, to avoid worsening the final outcome. I know he didn't like to worry us at all, and I know he knew how badly stress- even picking up on tension or stress in someone I cared about- affected me badly. There were few crises of that sort, which would not lead to awful ends, that he left unsaid, but sometimes it was just being overtired or out of juice, even after a night's sleep (especially near the end of his life, when the cancer was doing its thing and often had a 'heat-pump' chemotherapy bottle feeding the chemicals into his body via his chest portocath) or feeling more off than usual.
If I can ask: what is your Da's favourite variety of apple, and will they let him pick? ^_^ I'm terribly happy for your Da, and for your brother and you, knowing your Da will have that much better a quality of life with a fully-functioning and mouthful-count of good, strong teeth put in with his surgery. To your Da, good Fuzzle fren, and a long life further to come! (Hoists a bottle of Dr. Pepper!)

I'm very happy for you.
