So far, all of the tests that Dr. West had run have been negative. It took me awhile that this is one time that the word negative is a positive thing.
Yesterday I went to the dentist for my yearly cleaning and check up. For the first time in about 20 years, a cavity was discovered. The doctor filled my cavity. While he had me in the chair, he also fitted me for a crown that I had needed due to a broken tooth.
As bad as experiences like fillings and crowns on my teeth can be, it is really kinda nice to have something that everyone else has - something "normal." And compared to cancer treatments, cavity and broken teeth treatments are a breeze. Going to the dentist is part of life. And I like being part of life.
Gotta go to the dentist? Quit whinning. It could be worse.
