It's so hard to trust someone else with something like this! I trust my ortho completely. He's done an amazing job on my daughter and so far from me, but this last month I've had a migrating molar that is just somewhere weird and is freaking me out so doubtful thoughts have crept in just a teeny bit :oops:

I cant believe it...I just wrote a lengthy blog recounting the entire debracing process--and it's gone!!

Oh darn--well--hmmmm.....I have got to pack for my trip or I'm going to be up all night!! I will write it down while I'm on the plane so I can recount it when I come back from Hawaii.

Thanks Mike--I am just soooo happy!

ALOHA!!!!!
