I have also had a tooth bothering me (broke in a couple of places with a massive filling) so after $160 in xrays the dentist told me what I already knew - the tooth is not worth fixing and should be extracted. But, since the tooth is a back tooth and instead of two roots it looks like there is only one which might necessiate sawing into the bone, it is off to the specialist ($340) to have that done. Yippee!!<br /><br />SarahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611711622146875201.post-59776842419608569782013-02-16T13:24:50.545-05:002013-02-16T13:24:50.545-05:00Sean, I am about at the point of just having this ...Sean, I am about at the point of just having this tooth yanked, except that the tooth next to it was my problematic tooth(cracked on vacation, repaired, cracked again, root canal couldn't be completed, it was capped, crown wouldn't stay, he "buried" it under filling composite which held for 2+ years, then it wore off and cracked again and I just said pull it). So if I yank this one you will be able to park a car on that side of my mouth. lol I like chewing too much I suppose.<br /><br />The kids, they all mature at their own rate and we(society) needs to stop trying to fit them all into the same mold and making them feel "less than" when they aren't cut out to be just like everyone else. ;-)<br />I'm happy that your son was born into a world where there have been many of advances in recognizing and aiding spectrum kids. My Hubs brother, we suspect, was on the mild end of the spectrum. Of course back in the early '50s, the world was very different and there was little diagnosis, no real treatment and society forced you to either deny there were any issues or make horrible choices for your child. A parent having their child's back was and is the best thing for a "special" kid, let alone ANY kid.<br /><br />#2 Son plays the flute and sometimes the piccolo in the MB. He also plays bass(rock)in the Jazz band and has been teaching himself the standing bass as part of a Strings Ensemble.<br />slugmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12728856166374248591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611711622146875201.post-992722572392595232013-02-16T13:04:15.309-05:002013-02-16T13:04:15.309-05:00Thanks ND Chic.

She has confidence that since she got in here, she'll get in there. I don't want to burst her bubble on that but I have brought up the scenario she doesn't get into the program at the new school and that she needs to make a back-up plan.slugmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12728856166374248591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611711622146875201.post-2032475212069266632013-02-16T09:15:00.393-05:002013-02-16T09:15:00.393-05:00Boy can we empathize with you.

It seems like everyone is just having a week from "you-know-where." <br /><br />My wife had a particularly troublesome tooth that went through a root canal and crown, and eventually got extracted. She had a chronic infection that was acting like a sinus problem. Once this tooth was gone, the infection went away. She decided that this tooth was hopeless, and she wanted it gone after all the problems it caused. It makes me mad that she went through a lot of needless suffering. (Apparently we found a better dentist after we moved.)<br /><br />We've accepted that fact that our son will be taking a little longer to transition into adult life. He has mild Aspergers. One of the ways this manifests itself is emotional immaturity. He's 14, going on 10. He'll be able to function as an adult. It will just take a little longer. <br /><br />I was a marching band kid in high school. What instrument does your son play?<br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611711622146875201.post-89271616790235694702013-02-16T02:48:44.693-05:002013-02-16T02:48:44.693-05:00I'm with Judy, lots of vodka.

I was out later and drank a beer; didn't help at all, in fact, I could hardly drive home. I sat up in a chair in misery for the rest of the night because I could not sleep, counted the minutes until I thought it was OK to call the dentist (6AM, I think) and he said, "What would you like me to do about it?" !@#$% !<br /><br />Went in for a rendevouz with him at 7AM (it was Saturday) and he took out my abscessed wisdom tooth in pieces (it kept cracking and each time he'd say "I was hoping that wouldn't happen.") So yeah, I went from zero to 9.5 on the pain scale in about 12 hours and that was what happened.444https://www.blogger.com/profile/18317761558076527630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1611711622146875201.post-34615424698458054192013-02-15T18:43:33.511-05:002013-02-15T18:43:33.511-05:00Sluggy I feel your pain on everyone one of these....Sluggy I feel your pain on everyone one of these.
