Hi guys:
Need some dust and prayers for my mom who fractured her foot up in assisted living home in Maine. Apparently they found her sitting on the floor in her bedroom about midnight but she didn't know why she was there. She didn't say her foot hurt so she went back to bed but couldn't get out the next day (happened while we were in DW). Brother god took her to hospital and she got a soft cast on it but she didn't know why it was on and she took it off. She went back and got a hard cast now. They are wheeling her around and she needs help dressing/bathing etc. She might have to be going to a nursing home sooner then we thought as my brother said she's starting to get very nasty and swing her arms due to the Alzheimer's progression.

Just need some sprinkles for me. Had problem with a tooth while at DW and it hurt on the drive home. I got the name of a dentist from several neighbors and he fit me in this morning. Just home about 30 minutes and took two penicillin pills (here we go again with those side effects!!!), one pain pill and an acidophilus. Bleeding is slowing down and I'm still numb and can't find my tongue. Dentist found a big cyst and two cavities UNDER my crown that he said was there for "awhile". So, my option was to pay $1500 up front to "try" and save the tooth or $200 to pull it. So, one week before Christmas and days after our DW vacation, I went with the $200.
He was an excellent dentist and explained every little thing as we went along. I had no pain (wait until the shots wear off!!!). I have ice on and off it and he gave me a syringe to use with salt water starting tomorrow.
Going to sit down and watch TV or take a nap (who me?). Was up with tooth during the night. Maybe I'll sleep all night tonight?

Will check in later. Trying to eat some soup but can't find tongue and I think it's just going down my blouse!!

Oh Claire

Much foot dust for your Mom. Let me just say THERAPY.

AND

Much tooth dust for you. I hope your tongue comes back soon and I hope your not in too much pain after the meds wear off.

Gee, MOM--Do we always have to have the same illness and dental problems? I have one less molar to show for it. Oh, by the way after you get all numbed up, they may mention that nasty Wisdom tooth that just may have to come out, too. Tell them you are Cinderella and need all the Wisdom you can get. :roll:
I also think I now have Fibromyalgia. Will find out tomorrow. My Dad had it, so why not inherit the worse genes from each one of my parents. Lyme Disease was all my own doing.
Sorry to hear about your Mom, but let brother god deal with her. She'll be fine with a good dose of our PD and prayers such as I'm sending her now. Good luck with the tooth, just hope it's not the front one, or you will be demoted to wicked witch of the North :) !!! Hugs, Figgy

Aw, Cinderella, I'm sorry you have an ouchie. I hope you fell better quickly.

I am so sorry your mom is having problems. It's so sad when they act out of character. Poor thing, she's in my prayers.

Hang in there!
