Well its two weeks now until I get three lower teeth removed and woke up this morning in a total panic and very edgy about it all. I have not been eating or sleeping very well since that first appointment when the dentist told me I needed three teeth removed from my lower jaw and a partial denture fitted. I have felt total fear in the pit of my stomach at all this going on in my life, will it be obvious, what will it look like etc etc etc.
But then I found out why I love my husband of almost 35 years he was so totally supportive of me and even offered to sell a family heirloom if I feel I need pvt dental care. I have always known why I love my husband but this morning he cried with me about the loss of my teeth and offered all the help and support he possibly could.
I have felt sick all day today with the emotion of all this but tonight I am feeling a little more positive and will make this journey, although I have always felt I am a strong person this has surprised me how bad I feel about having to have a denture. I have trawled the internet looking for pictures and answers and so many ppl are negative about this, especially bottom partials, but hopefully if I get a positive result I am going to let everyone know to encourage them to do what is necessary.
One thing I know for certain after this mornings emotions is that my hubby loves me whatever and that has made me feel so much better in myself.
God Bless each of you going through this awful journey
