Oh MY TOOTH!!!

Last Thursday night the left side of my mouth started hurting. By Friday morning I was in a lot of pain but I didn't want to miss work so I went in. I couldn't eat the pain was so bad. My wonderful coworkers covered my patients while I ran to the dentist. He said the left side of my jaw was totally inflamed. and I have possibly 2 abcessed teeth. He started me on antibotics and gave me some pain meds. I meet with a specialist this Wednesday. Since I am pregnant my dentist wanted me to have a specialist evaluate me, that way if I do need a root canal, the specialist can do it faster, since I will not be able to take the normal meds for the procedure. Isn't it enough to be pregnant, chase a 2 year old and work now this!!! I know God does not give us more than we can handle, so I just pray that he wraps his hands around me at this time. I broke down crying at work at lunch time Sunday because I was so hungry and I couldn't chew what I brought for lunch. My coworker Jan, Momma Jan, was having lunch with her daughter so she called her and had her bring me something soft to eat. I am so blessed to have such caring coworkers. God's blessings come from everywhere and in ways and at times you don't expect.

Hope everyone had a great weekend and has a great week.
