Edna Hardy and Katrina Hale are sisters who live in Miami, Oklahoma. Last month, they traveled over the Oklahoma-Missouri border to get free dental care at the sixth annual MOMOM, or Missouri Mission of Mercy.
MOMOM is a once a year, two-day dental clinic providing free care for anyone who’s willing to wait in line. It’s in a different place every year, and this year the event was held in Joplin, Missouri.
Edna and Katrina spoke about some of the struggles they have faced getting adequate care throughout the years.
