Its Saturday morning and I am home alone... Wow... I havent been home alone in a long time! Sam and Kam went to a screen printing convention for the day and Kieffer went to the beach with friends...
So now its time for me to tell you guys about my upcoming surgery on Tuesday... I really have struggled with telling you guys because I am very self conscious about this...
I have had teeth problems my whole life... I have had it all...
Inch and a half overbite as a toddler... food would just fall out of my mouth! Then orthodontics, head gear, retainers that went on for YEARS... Then I had to have a gum graph at age 14 with the braces [they cut a hole in the roof of my mouth and put it over the gums in my lower front teeth] That NEVER really worked... my gums just kept receding anyway...
Later I have had quadrant gum cleanings... root canals... bridges... you name it!
Back in 2000, I got a serious staph infection [I believe from a nail salon] I had to go to an infectious disease specialist to finally get it under control...
The heavy duty antibiotics made my teeth problems worse exponentially!
[You know how tetracycline, can turn teeth yellow? Well, the antibiotic they had me on seemed to just eat away at my teeth!]
7 teeth are broken off at the gum line...
I am getting it all done for my daughters wedding...
I want to smile at her wedding...
Maybe you haven't noticed but you NEVER see me smiling in a photo...
1st surgery [Tuesday 8:30am] 14 teeth are taken out...
2nd surgery 11 more... [In 2 weeks]
Implants will be in by August 14th
At least I will drop about 20 lbs on the liquid diet... Lord knows I could use that right now because I weigh 190 lbs... LOL
So I guess I am telling you guys this because I need your prayers and your support...
I want her back :)

Everything will be fine and you will look beautiful afterwards. The dentists nowadays are soooo good at what they do. Last time I went I thought it was going to be horrible getting a wisdom tooth pulled but it was a breeze...not like "last time". lol But you know that with all you have had done!! You are going to look fabulous!!! : ) Good luck and prayers for you. Love ya, Shelly
No matter how beautiful you become outwardly it will never surpass your inward beauty. I hope all goes well for you Chickie.
