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!

Oh no, what's wrong with your eyes? I hope not something that causes blindness. My eyes have been bad all my life, forgot to mention those in the weak genes. Even with glasses it doesn't correct to 20/20 and I'm not a candidate for laser. And I don't wear them around the house, even for my computer. It's not clear but I can see; distance is really bad now. I don't wear them because I used to have a special pair just for near, reading and my computer so I wouldn't have to strain my neck. I didn't get those last time. And I have cataracts, don't know how I've gotten away with them this long.

Ski that needs to be done. They sand down hot spots but what they take off can't be put back on. I don't know how far they can adjust, may have a heat process. I'm not real happy with them but it's tolerable. It hurts at first when I put them in but in a little while it goes away for the most part, you'd think it would get worse but it doesn't.

Combined with my stomach problems which hurt every day, have to get that looked at, too, spend most of the time in bed for the last year because it hurts less lying on my back. No bleeding and no nausea so I still get hungry but not like normal. That could turn out to be the most serious. I don't know if it is worth it at this point to try to fix things. For some people it would be.
