    Patty - hope you are getting some decent rest while DH is around to take the boys. You were asking about movies a couple of days ago - on Wed my family went to Zootropolis (Zootopia in the US I believe) (DH, me, 19 yo and 10 yo) We all enjoyed it heaps, it was funny, clever and wonderful visually

    Oh my teeth. Lower gums are healing but I still need soft food. Next Saturday I will have the root tips extracted from two upper crowns that broke off. Wouldn't ya know they have nerves!! I am off the codiene. Then the remaining 5 teeth and bridges will be extracted and decisions will be made as to how to go forward. I look so horrid and it is our 38th wedding anniversary. If I wont have dental pain anymore I will appreciate that and be very grateful.

    Thank God for the flouride the next generation after mine had in their water. Much better dental health.

    Thanks for thinking of me.

    OH Ginger, how awful. You are so right about the fluoride and sealants. DS Steve is 31 and never had a cavity. One time I had tooth nerve pain that caused such a problem that my eardrum ruptured and I didn't even notice b/c the nerve pain was so bad. All the years and money you put into taking care of them and BC wipes them all out. Sorry, so wish they're was something magic to take your pain away.

    Ask about Lidocaine viscus? It's a swish and spit thing. Can you take an NSAID? An NSAID plus the codeine may give you some better relief. Also, ask for Valium 5-10 mg able to increase by 5 mg until relief. It's the BESTEST for TMJ spasm. B/C they're is so much pain the TMJ is likely in spasm too. The spasm by itself can cause lot's and lot's of pain. (been there). It can get as tight as a wound propeller. Hugs sweetie.

    OOps reread your post. your "off the codeine". So, above stuff isn't needed right now. Leaving it here as a FYI.

    Happy early birthday!! Have fun for me too!!

    Tang, great idea! Very nice!

    Ms. Ginger- hugs.

    Ms. Sas, love the wine glasses. So elegant!

    JunieB, when is your trip to California again? Hope your dizziness is gone.

    Susan, hope chemo is kind to you this round.

    Patty, hope you still have some juice left to last you for the spring break.

    Well, we took a last minute trip down to Southern California to visit 3 universities a few days ago. DD just found out a few days prior. Road trip of 7 hrs of driving with Mitzy. Surprisingly, she did very well on the long trip. She did get anxious whenever we stopp for rest room break, but other than that she was good. All the campuses are nice. Pepperdine is by the coast and Biola and UC Irvine are near LA, so traffic is horrible if you have to commute. Every hour is rush hour in LA. It's like a parking lot! Such a waste of gasoline sitting in traffic. I think it's a conspiracy of the big oil companies because if you look at the GPS screen, there tons of gas stations symbols along the freeway. Ok that is my crazy theory for the day.

    Blessings been meaning to ask you about your head injury recovery. I've had so many if you remember, my right ankle is trying to kill me. But I remember so well after your head injury, how you had so much trouble processing. It was stark. You are now back to the Blessings we knew :) I'm going to ask you to write a history of your occurrence. That's bold. But I have another thread " Pain and Other Things". I wanted to consolidate old posts and other things that may be helpful to others here on BCO. Your concussion story and your recovery are important. Particularly, coping mechanisms that you used. It could be done in several post i.e the occurrence and immediate aftermath, the midterm recovery, and then the long term recovery. Whatever you want to make it. If it's something you see as not wanting to put here, then if you would put it there. I'll bring back the link. If you could put at the header of the post something like "After a head injury, Post Concussion Recovery". You are great with words and a great teacher, so, I know whatever you come up with will be of value.

    Well too, another subject, you have b/c of DH's illness probably the greatest sense of creating the clean environment. Maybe not the best way to say it, but you have described the things you do b/c of his chronic reduced immune state. This is also important. I have had too many patients and heard stories here where folks don't have a clue or enough of a clue to keep themselves safe. When you've told the stories of what you do, it's impressive. I thought I had it down, I learned stuff from you for sure.

    Okay have I missed anything? LOL.............. So glad you are back to or closer to your normal. Many hugs.

    Hello Loverly, I can't wait to get Shats Prozac. Vet suggested it two years ago. I obviously was hesitant. After hearing how well Mitsy did on it. I may have to move up Shat's yearly appointment. We had another storm last night and this afternoon. She was a mess. Glued to me every step. Thunder shirt minimal help. Not like it was. It was great the first few years. But she is 9 now, I don't see this abating, just getting stronger. I'm resolved that the Prozac is the way to go. BTW the vet sent a message that for dogs without problems, where the owner (me) doesn't want to do special foods, she recommends Purina 1, senior(my dogs are seniors). Did you contact the local vet school?

    FeelingFeline, what's the story behind your screen name? I know you are a cat lover, but the words mean more? I love stories behind screen names. I was on "OMG They Found A Cure For Stupid" The first 110 pages will make you pee yourself. At one point someone said our material was appearing on fb. They're was a huge shuffle and flurry of name changes and avatars. I looked around and saw Schatzi. I became my initials and my dog. Around page 42 their was a very nasty post that only a few of us saw. The poster said "We would all go to hell for making fun of breast cancer and that we were nothing but a bunch of clacking hens". It was deleted by the Mods. Well, after that the clucking started. We were so weird. It was GREAT!. Strongly recommend reading that thread from first page to about 110. It still continues, but many, many of the originals are gone. Some passed, some faded away, It just wasn't the same after that. But strongly recommend reading the first 110.

    No, I haven't called the vet school yet. Poor Schatz. Worth a try of Prozac.

    FF, I would love to hear the story behind your screen name.

    Before we left for Good Friday service this evening, we had Mitzy in the crate. Came home and guess who was waiting for us at the door. We have a Houdini for a dog!! Take a close look at the crate. Besides the knocked over bucket and baby wipes container, everything looked intact right?

    image

    Can't believe we have an escape artist! Ha! Reviewed our camera and saw that she got out through the top slit. At one point her head was stuck for a few seconds. Good thing she is thin and agile. She did manage to scrape her face though:( Something must have spooked her because she kept on looking toward the sliding door before the attempted escape.
