My daughter ROCKS!
Everything went fantastic yesterday! Thank you for your prayers.
It wasn't tubes, though we did that about two years ago, that was heartbreaking as well.
She has deep craters in her back teeth, so they needed to fill them in. By filling them in it should prevent plaque from lurking around her teeth, therefore hopefully preventing cavities from rearing their ugly heads.
Hubs had an important meeting so my dear sweet gracious friend accompanied me, to help with baby and to console me.
She was very upset the instant we parked in the parking lot, but my friend was able to calm her down better than I simply because she wasn't me.
Shortly after her relaxing cocktail (that's what they called it), they called her name and she walked back there all alone without any tears, I on the other hand was a complete basket case.
I heard muffled screams thru the walls and a cry for mommy that broke my heart, but my friend wouldn't let me listen to it and kept my mind from it. About 90 minutes later, a smiling bright eyed little girl came strolling out! I couldn't believe it. They said she had cried only a little bit, and that she did excellent.
They didn't even have to numb her, because she let them work on her without it, something her mother can not do.
Since they didn't have to numb her they said she could eat whatever/whenever she wanted. She requested the orange place better known as Whataburger. Three chicken nuggets, a package of french fries, two cups of pop (since she doesn't typically get it I think this was her favorite part), and a cookie later, she was thrilled.
She slept for a little while after we got home, but she was a trooper and I am so proud of her!

What great news!
I'm glad to hear that all went well!! What a relief, eh?
While I'm hear I wanted to let you know that, just in time for the holidays, I’m hosting a Hot Deals for a Cool Christmas information exchange. Please stop by and check out the details!
Ugh. Our son had a cap put on a tooth when he was two. Even though I know he was loopy after his "woozy juice," it was still SOOOOOO hard to hear him try to call for me.
Blech.
