Thanks for asking. Am thinking about you. You'll be ok. Just every day you can eat fairly normally and chew, food you like, say a little prayer of thanksgiving :-). I took it for granted. Another sore spot on my dentures, have to push on through, appt Monday, hope he can get it right, guess it takes several adjustments. At least I can get them in and out by myself, and I think my mouth and gums aren't nearly as sore as they have been.
I'll keep you posted about my daughter. It's kind of a shock; she's 1964, she's only 53 but lived a pretty hard life with drugs and booze. She realized she was going to die with the drugs and prayed for help and got it. Been clean for many years. The booze isn't so easy.
Yesterday she was going to bring me an OTC med and never showed up. She's not dependable whether she feels good or not, just have to accept it.
I guess I don’t think much about being grateful for my teeth and being able to eat, but I do thank God often for the vision I have (it’s a much bigger problem than my teeth). And it will only get worse so I take it day by day. When I see something pretty, like now with the fall leaves, I am grateful for it and try to memorize it, just in case.
Sorry your dentures are hurting. I imagine that’s normal until you heal? I wonder how they adjust them?
Accepting others as they are is hard! But important for serenity. I’d like to be accepted with all my shortcomings too, so I have to remember that! Yes please keep me informed on both your daughter and your adventures with dentures!
