Dentist
Posted on 28. Feb, 2009 by Rachel
Thought I'd keep you posted on Marand's tooth...The appointment yesterday went well. Two hours of more digging and cleaning out the previous root canal (those weren't intended to be un-done!) and the doctor "sees something" possibly a shard of metal, possibly the cause of the problem, we'll see. There is still a "space" up in there that needs to fill in, so she is giving it till May and then we'll take a look at it again and see if she can re-do the root canal or not. Please pray that that heals up so the tooth can be saved. If it has to be pulled, that makes for a whole other set of costs with an implant. Being the very last tooth, all the others would tend to drift if you didn't fill in the space. We are praising God that the dentist seems to be VERY thorough, and that Marand is not in any discomfort. Thanks for thinking of him, and asking about how he's doing. What doesn't kill us, or put us in the poor house makes us stronger right?? :)
Hope you all have a great weekend!

Too funny ! I love the posts. I find myself doing the same thing with comments :) and crazy you should mention the Nietzsche guy, I knew nothing about him until the other day when reading this post from Answers in Genesis. Now I know a little more about him! Thanks! and Amen to the "if God is for us...." !!
Some of you may not know this: but Marand and I even spelled "dessert" "desert" on our wedding invitations! Spelling is not my strong point...and Marand was just blinded by love (I'm sure :)
Hooray that Marand is weathering it well and the dentist knows what she's doing! Nietzsche was the one who said What doesn't doesn't destroy us makes us stronger, but that guy was a few cards shy of a full deck. If God be for us, who (or what) can be against us? Nothing! ot even toothaches! Aren't you glad! Love Birth Grandma
Sorry for the typos. On my computer, the text in the comment box thingy goes outside of the margins of the box, so I can't always proofread everything before hitting the save button. On well!
See?!! LOL. "Oh well," not "On well."
