I need a Tooth Fairy

Does the tooth fairy really exist? I certainly hope so because after this week I will have 4 teeth (all in tonz of pieces) to put under my pillow! On a more serious and sad note, I have to admit that I am experiencing more emotional and mental pain than I am physical, and the physical pain is quite intense!

My mouth has not handled root canals at all. Most of my teeth that have had root canals are exploding into fragments and teenie tiny pieces below the gum line and it requires 2 surgeries for each tooth loss to get things fixed. That means this year I will have a total of eight surgeries!

I was shocked how long it takes to get a new tooth! (an implant) I won't be getting my new teeth until Spring of next year. Well, actually I will be getting one new tooth this fall.I am afraid my smiles are going to be rather reserved.

I am grateful for a supportive scrubby who loves his toothless wife. I am trying to be positive and count my blessings.

Many of you have asked about my Little Lucy, our Maltese puppy. We have her on quite a few vitamins and supplements. Hopefully her hair will grow back and she won't have anymore lumps. I couldn't bear the thought in losing her. I love her so much!

I have become very prayerful these days. The tooth fairy may not be real, but one thing I do know... God is real.

  3. Oh, Joyce! :( This is terrible ~ I'm so sorry to hear all of this! My thoughts will be with you and your family and your puppy for sure! I hope you can get some real joy soon!

    As for your blog, everything seems to be where it should be ~ it's just not showing up on your dark background. But if you run your mouse around, everything appears as you roll over it. Maybe all you need to do is change the font colors of the missing elements so they appear better on the dark background.

    Or, if you are using one of the blogger templates, probably switching it to "Minima Dark" would do the trick! {I hope!} Good luck! That's as much help as I can offer unfortunately, since I would be lost on blogger without templates!

    Best wishes to you and your puppy!
