Thanks Shawnie! Trust me, I need all the encouragement that I can get! I guess I've just been feeling a little down about my teeth lately! Hopefully you won't have your braces on for as long as me!
Clo: That's pretty cool that you and I were braced around the same time! I know you've seen a lot more progress than me for about the same time, but then again my teeth move a lot slower than most!
Good luck!

Yeah Hannah, it feels great to know someone is walking alongside me in
this journey. So we can share experiences. This is awesome. Some days
ago I had another adjustment and my ortho said she has never seen
teeth that are so hard to move. So I know what you are talking about.
After those 21 months, I have now teeth that look better, they are better
aligned. But my bite is very bad. So I know I'll have braces for a long
time ... Maybe we can see who can run the fastest to the exit of braceland.
