i'm getting surgery on monday. this is an actual picture of my failed root canal. you can kind of see on the right side of the highlighted tooth a dark line running down the root. that's where it got all jacked up. apparently the specialist thinks that there are fragments of a root canal instrument that broke off in the root & caused the failure/infection. bummer.
looks like i'm gonna have a swollen face for christmas.
even though it's somewhat sucky... the bright side is, they don't have to pull my tooth! in 3 months when the surgery is healed, i'll get a crown and be done with all this madness!
thanks for the prayers y'all!

what? you've had a broken dental instrument in your mouth for the last 5 years? that is just sucktacular! do you need anything on monday? a ride? a stay at momma's so i can baby you? let me know danny. i'm there for you. we just bought a big blow-up bed so you'd be very comfortable.
That sounds nice momma! I'll definitely have to swing by after. Manda is going to pick me up from work & take me to the surgery, but I'd love the company afterwards :)
