Teiha came and told us how bad her teeth were hurting. "It kept me awake all night last night and I have gotten to the point where I can't even open my mouth to eat anymore. I have had to chop my food into little tiny pieces" she said. We told her to wait until everyone had been served and Shoulder the Cross would call a dental contact to see if they had any openings. After the lined had finally suppressed, Teiha, who was initially the first person in line, came up to us and we made the call to Dr. Scott Smith's office at Buttercup Dental. "We have an opening at 3:20 today. Bring her by and we would be more than happy to see her". We picked her up at 2:40 at Wooldridge Square Park and headed north to Cedar Park. We dropped her off then headed out to get a bus pass. Getting a bus pass would make it easier for her to get back downtown and giving her a 7 day bus pass would definitely benefit her. We made it back to the dentist around 4:30 after she was all done. Dr. Smith gave her a prescription for antibiotics to kill the horrible infection she had and set her up with an appointment to have her wisdom teeth removed 3 days later. Teiha was grateful because using her MAPS card would not have given her the service they did at Buttercup Dental. She was sure that an appointment through MAPS to have the tooth even looked at could have been weeks away. Hopefully all goes well on Thursday, updates to follow.
That's sad hope she feels better I don't always get time to sit and read your bloggs but when I do I really enjoy them they have a way of captivating me and making me feel like im right there ..love you sorry I didn't use any punctuations to tired

=( I'm also sad for you. Some wisdom tooth procedures can truly be painful. But one thing's for sure: you're going to surpass 'em all no matter how traumatic the experience may be!
