Big OWIE

  Sorry I have been absent here.  Not wanting to share too much of "me" these days.  I am dealing with root canal recovery... and it is not going well.  5 days after the procedure and I still cannot bite on the tooth.  Big OWIE.  Everything else feels fine, though.  Of course, I have taken a tour of the web and found all sorts of horrible scenarios.  I am not liking any of the reasons I am in pain.  But you know what?  I am leaving it up to the Lord.  He is the ultimate Father, Protector, Advisor, and yes, even DENTIST.:)  If you could remember me in your prayers to Him I would so appreciate it!  Praying that the pain goes away so I can enjoy this most wonderful time of year.:)  Love you all....



**On a happier note (though I am still in pain!) stop by here and check out this fabulous giveaway!  Thanks, Nancy!*

    Oh Lori, I feel so bad for you! I had the start of a root canal about 9 yrs. ago and have way through the dentist goes I can't do this! He stuck plugs into the holes he drilled and sent me on my merry way!! I went to my regular dentist the next day and he pulled the tooth. It was a back last molar so it doesn't even show.

    Hey Lori! I have been praying for you. How are you doing? Is the pain getting any better? I can completely relate. In 2008 I had a nightmare experience with crowns and 4 years later my teeth still hurt. My new dentist (I fired my old one) said that a root canal might be in my future if the pain from my crowns doesn't improve. I have just thought of having them pull the teeth instead. I don't know which would be worse, but if it comes down to it I will definitely be asking your opinion!
