I am still here feeling a tad sore. Still alive, although very weirded out and sick to my stomach at times when thinking about what has gone on in my head. Thank you readers for your well wishes. I so appreciate your comments sending good luck.

I now almost believe everyone who told me that “it really isn’t that bad.”

I was sedated, so I don’t remember any of the procedure. My husband took very good care of me and the kids this weekend so I could rest and heal. My kids, though a bit puzzled, tolerated the mommy-can’t-pick-me-up-because-she-has-an-ouchy weekend. I didn’t need many pain meds and I didn’t swell very much.

And now it is Monday morning. I think I might have to eat solid foods at some point. I am still terrified of the holes in my head. And I am a down a bit on the wisdom factor. And one day I’ll just look back at this distant memory. (Maybe even with straight teeth.)

P/S I forgot to tell the doctor just to toss the teeth and not send them home with me. Now I have this pink plastic tooth that contains all four of those little suckers. Hearing them rattle around in there makes me feel really queasy. No way am I looking at those things. Ever. Yuck.
