I'm sorry to hear that you had to go through such issues. Oh, it looks like we'll have a topic for discussion in 2 weeks or so :D We can compare the pain that we will be facing, lol.. just kidding :)

I have the same issue. My parents don't have good teeth either. I am lucky not to be allergic to anesthetics as I wouldn't survive a dentist appointment without them :D I have sentient gums and all these things that dentists do hurt so much..

I was surprised to see flowers, grass and new leaves coming out. It's been quite warm here and the next week will be warm as well. I just hope that it won't be freezing afterwards as everything would die..

Thank you for stopping by and for your support :)

Have fun on vacation and good luck with your surgery!
