Today I have my next to the last dental appointment to correct the many problems that seem to have gone wrong with my teeth in the past three years. As much as I am excited that I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel, I am not looking forward to this afternoon. My last root canal was a horrible experience. I just pray that the next to appointments go a lot better. On my last appointment I opted not to have the "laughing gas" since I didn't like the way I reacted to it before. Today I have decided to have the laughing gas. I do admit that the first time I had it I was so much more relax and it made the appointment seem not so bad. Today's appointment will take close to two hours. I have taken tomorrow off "just in case". I am pretty sure that I am going to be very sore and I didn't want to have to risk calling in sick. Life is always better when you plan for the worst because it usually means it doesn't happen.
Financially it has also been a huge burden having all these dental problems. Even with dental insurance it has taken a lot of our own money. I would say since June we have spent close to $1600. And that is with insurance!!!!! I don't know how people do it without health insurance.
On a final note: Please send lots of good thoughts our way. Not just for all the dental work that I am having, but also for a decision that Laura is making in the next week or so. At this time I can't go into more detail, but just send out lots of good prayers. Thanks blogger friends. BTW, I have the best blogger friends in the world.
